Argentines bid a raucous farewell to Maradona amid clashes
Mourners embrace as they wait to see Diego Maradona lying in state outside the presidential palace in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Thursday, Nov. 26, 2020. The Argentine soccer great who led his country to the 1986 World Cup died Wednesday at the age of 60. Fans waving Argentine flags had gathered along roads as Maradonaโs funeral car drove by under heavy security. The crowd overwhelmed organizers and the violence resulted in injuries and arrests, which led Maradona's family to end the public visitation.
