Today’s Video: In the name of the Diego, the Messi, and the holy Hand of God…

After days of speculation, Diego Maradona was officially named yesterday as the coach of the Argentine men’s soccer team. That news was definitely welcomed by members of the Church of Maradona who praise all things of the soccer legend:
Church members celebrate Maradona's 48th birthday in the video, which they refer to as the year D.D. 48 ("Despues," or "After" Diego). Included in the procession is an oversized rosary — sorry, goalary — which includes 34 beads, the number of goals Maradona scored for Argentina.
This video below shows Diego’s disciples worshipping their hero:
