This episode is about Maradona, Messi, and Argentine Football in general. After the death of Maradona only a few weeks ago, I decided to have a talk with Matías, a journalist who's a really big football fan. In this interview, he'll explain why Maradona is so important to Argentines and he'll also explain how Messi is different from him.

Matías Saavedra is a 36-year-old Argentinean journalist. He has 16 years of experience in conventional and digital media as well as in institutional press, complemented by studies in Social Sciences. The football-related narrative is his fetish and he often talks about booties on Instagram through his profile @pasiondebotines.
