When Argentine and Brazilian Legends Maradona and Pele Reunite in Heaven

Edson Arantes do Nascimento Pele and Diego Armando Maradona, two of the greatest football players ever and the dominant figures of their eras, have both passed away, with the former passing away on Thursday. The Argentine experienced heart arrest on November 25, 2020, and died at the age of 60. In a tribute to his friend at the time, Pele stated that one day he hoped to play football with him in space.

"The world has lost a legend, and I have lost a dear friend." There is still so much to say, but for the time being, may God grant his family courage. I hope we can play football together sometime.
