Maradona's son believes that his father and Messi are compared only by people who do not know soccer

The son of the legendary Argentine soccer player Diego Maradona commented on Argentina's defeat of Saudi Arabia (1-2) in the first round of the group stage match of the World Cup.

"I am devastated by the defeat of Argentina. I find it hard to believe that all this really happened. Losing to Saudi Arabia is crazy.

The comparison between Messi and my dad is made by those who don't see and don't understand football. We are talking about two different planets. But I don't want to throw the cross at Lionel right away," Marca quotes Diego Armando Maradona Jr.

After the first round, Saudi Arabia (3 points) leads Group C, Mexico (1) and Poland (1) share 2-3 places and Argentina (0) is in last place.
