Maradona, who failed to become the third man to win the Cup as a player and a coach, hinted he would resign following his side's World Cup elimination. However, the whole nation, including its president, Cristina Fernndez de Kirchner, appeared rather supportive of the "one of the country's most famous sons". Argentina's performance was really not that bad compared to Italy and France as the defending champion and the runner-up four years ago were eliminated in the group stage.
