In 2000, fourteen years after guiding Argentina to World Cup glory, Diego Armando Maradona made his sole return to Estadio Azteca. A new ESPN Films documentary, *The Day Diego Returned to the Azteca*, chronicles this remarkable and overlooked chapter. While en route from Cuba to Mexico for Boca Juniors’ Copa Libertadores semifinal clash with Club América, Maradona paid an unexpected visit to the legendary stadium. The film captures the profound significance of that moment, weaving together the story of his triumphant 1986 victory and his poignant homecoming to the iconic venue.
