After Wednesday night’s 1-0 victory away to Uruguay secured Argentina’s passage to South Africa next year, an emotional Maradona unleashed an expletive-laden attack against assembled reporters and his critics.

“The reports we have received so far leave us no other alternative but to ask the disciplinary committee of Fifa to open a case against the coach Diego Armando Maradona,” said Blatter.

Maradona has been the subject of much criticism in Argentina following the team’s struggle to qualify for the World Cup. Although victory in Uruguay offered him the final say, Maradona still emerged in a vindicative mood. “You lot take it up the arse - if the ladies will pardon the expression,” began his outburst.

The coach went on to dedicate the win to the fans back home, his two daughters, Dalma and Giannina, and his squad, before continuing his rant.

“But certain people who have not supported me, and you know who you are, can keep sucking,” he said.

Maradona then grabbed his genitals with both hands, signalling some sort of insult to the TV cameras in the tunnel outside the dressing room.
