Argentina declared three days of mourning as soccer fans across the nation poured into the streets to remember their fallen hero, the star striker Diego Maradona, after his death from a heart attack.
“Diego was Argentina in the world, he filled us with happiness and we will never be able to repay the joy,” President Alberto Fernández said shortly after authorities announced the death of the 60-year-old soccer player at his compound in Tigre outside of Buenos Aires.
