Another eye-catching move followed for Maradona, as he headed to Mexico s Ascenso MX, the country s second division. Some people said Maradona s useless, he raged after 4-1 debut win and he went on to lead Dorados to the Apertura and Clausura finals.
They suffered defeat to Atletico San Luis in both ties, with Maradona appearing to aim a punch at an opposing fan in post-match fracas after the Apertura defeat. Of his 41 games at the helm, Maradona claimed 20 wins (48.8 per cent) and suffered only 11 defeats.
