Maradona released from hospital

Soccer legend Diego Maradona was released from a Buenos Aires hospital where he was being treated from acute hepatitis linked to alcohol abuse. “El Diez” left the Guemes Sanatorium today shortly before dawn after two weeks of treatment where doctors recommended he continue follow-up treatment.

Though Maradona is one of the best soccer players of all time (example- FIFA’s Goal of the Century), his personal troubles with drugs and obesity has captured headlines over the past few years.
