Diego Maradona is no stranger to controversy and the Argentina legend proved it once again when he slapped a journalist following a heated interview with reporters.
The 53-year-old was questioned by several journalists as he left a theatre in his homeland with the mother of his child, Veronica Ojeda, and their son Diego Fernando on Saturday.
But, after one reporter allegedly gestured or winked at Ojeda, Maradona was angered enough to get out of his car and slap the man.
The 1986 World Cup winning captain said: ‘Why mess with my wife if I do not mess with you?’
The incident has made headlines in Argentina after the slap was captured on camera.
After seeing this video, we are sure that journalists in Maradona’s homeland won’t be messing with him again any time soon…
