Diego Maradona was more than a soccer player — he was an emotion. From the dirt streets of Villa Fiorito to the roar of Naples, from the glory of Mexico ’86 to the heartbreak of scandal and exile, this is the story of the most human genius the sport has ever known. In this special edition of Atlanta Soccer Flashback, Jason Longshore traces Maradona’s life through its triumphs and turmoil — the boy who played barefoot in Buenos Aires, the man who lifted Argentina and Napoli to immortality, and the legend who reminded us all that “La pelota no se mancha” — the ball does not get stained. It’s a story of faith, fire, and forgiveness — the beautiful chaos of Diego Armando Maradona.

Atlanta United’s next move could define the club’s future — will it be Tata Martino, the returning champion who was previously linked with LAFC, or Giovanni Savarese, the proven MLS builder with deep New York roots... or someone else entirely? Jason Longshore breaks down the win-now vs. stability debate, explores how the MLS coaching carousel (including LAFC, New England, and the Red Bulls) could impact Atlanta’s timeline, and dives into the opening week of the MLS Cup Playoffs — from Charlotte’s home loss to NYCFC to Philadelphia’s shootout thriller over Chicago, Miami’s dominance, and San Diego’s statement win. Plus, a look at the local college scene in the 3-4-3 and more!
