[quote author=Maradona, post game]"There were those who did not believe in this team and who treated me as less than nothing," said Maradona, whose team had endured a chaotic, lacklustre qualifying campaign.

"Today we are in the World Cup finals with help from nobody but with honour. To all of you who did not believe in us, and I apologise to all the women here, you can suck it and keep sucking it," he added, repeating the phrase.

The Argentinian papers are slamming him...Even more

Another take on his quote - can we get him as a guest coach??

"You lot take it up the arse," were Diego Maradona's words to the press immediately after his team secured a place at next year's World Cup finals. It was almost adding injury to the insult when he scanned the room and added, "if the ladies will pardon the expression".

Maradona's outburst has already become a sensation with Internet sites selling T-shirts emblazoned with the phrase "They can keep sucking it".

From the BBC - I love this guy.

Maradona has appeared on Argentine radio and television but on both occasions he refused to apologise to the press for his outburst.

"I don't have to apologise," he told Radio Continental on Thursday. "All I was doing was reacting to all those people who have spoken out against me. That's as far as it goes.

"I'm not going to perform a U-turn. Everyone knows what has been said. It seems to me that a lot of journalists wanted the national team not to qualify for the World Cup finals.

"For me, that's anti-Argentine and is something I can't forgive."

On Friday he told TyC Sports television: "I apologise to women, to my mother, to Argentinian women, to Uruguayan women and to women throughout the world. But only to them, not the others."
