Narrator: The following is a presentation

of HBO Sports.

John Foot: Napoli seemed a very strange choice

at that time for Maradona to make.

Serie A was the richest, most powerful league in the world.

All the best players came to Italy,

particularly to the northern giants:

Milan, Inter, and Juventus.

But Napoli, in its history, had won two cups.

That was it.

Never won the championship.

It was not a successful team.

It was not a team that was looking like being successful.

Male commentator: Donadoni.

Good parry. Schillaci!

And that's it.

Italy go forward to meet

Maradona and Argentina in the semi-finals.

Male commentator: Ninety degrees, it's been.

A contest between the last two winners,

between the hosts, and the holders.

The feelings of the crowd for the Italian team have been made clear,

and although Maradona is a king,

maybe even a god in this neck of the woods,

it's the Italian team that the home crowd here will be supporting.

John Foot: That's the time when everything

starts to go wrong for him in Italy.

That's the time when they say, "Okay. Enough is enough."

Italy turns on him.

The protection he had collapses.

He's no longer protected against the press,

the judicial authorities, the tax authorities.

The backlash is nasty.

John Foot: The final was probably the worst final ever

of a World Cup.

Argentina lose to the Germans.

The national anthem is being booed by the whole stadium.

They're not booing Argentina's national anthem

because they don't like Argentina.

They're booing it because they don't like Maradona.

He really was hated.
