Serie A Gifts Us A Highlight Reel Of Maradona’s Best Napoli Moments

It’s been over four months since we first caught wind of the Diego Maradona documentary that debuted in select cinemas worldwide back in June. Unfortunately, since America can be quite trash in the ways of appreciating soccer, the film hasn't been available to watch stateside. That’s all going to change on October 1.

HBO acquired the exclusive U.S. television and streaming rights, and its current plan is to debut the film on that date at 9 p.m. ET. It's going to be one hell of a Tuesday night. 

“Having spent three intense years working with my brilliant team of collaborators on the most complex charismatic character, Diego Maradona, I’m excited to see how the North American audience reacts,” director Asif Kapadia said. “I hope this is the beginning of a long journey together with HBO and Diego.”

I don’t know what a long journey with HBO and Diego would entail, but sign me up. And to get us through this final month of waiting, here’s a recent video from Serie A’s YouTube channel that includes some high-quality moments from Maradona’s time in Naples.
