Is Diego Maradona the worst coach ever? The question comes to mind following his sacking as Al Wasl coach. He coached the United Arab Emirates' side for 14 months with no success coming his way. This is not the first time that the great Argentine has been meted out that kind of treatment in his coaching career. As a player he was one of a kind, winning the 1986 World...

Kiev: Spain's talented midfielders answered weeks of criticism over boring play with a masterclass performance of attacking football that led it to a second straight European Championship.
