Martino wishes Maradona luck - but not too much - at Gimnasia

Mexico manager Tata Martino hopes things go well for Diego Maradona as the Argentina legend takes over Gimnasia in the Argentine SuperLiga - but not too well.

Martino, who won three titles with childhood club Newell's Old Boys as a player and one as a manager, wants Maradona to succeed but not at the expense of the Rosario team he still supports.

"First, I want to say what I feel and I wish for him, that he gets all the good he deserves there and that he has a lot of success in his return to Argentine football as a manager," Martino said in a news conference ahead of El Tri's match Tuesday against Argentina.
