Diego Maradona, Argentine Soccer Great, Brings His 2014 Brazil World Cup Analysis Program to Ca
MEXICO CITY, June 9, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Canal 22 Internacional, the arts and entertainment channel, will share its passion for soccer by presenting "De Zurda," a unique and unprecedented sports analysis show on the 2014 Brazil World Cup.
Hosted by Diego Maradona, considered one of the greatest soccer players of all time, "De Zurda" premieres Monday, June 9 and will air nightly, Monday through Sunday (10 p.m. PST/1 a.m. EST) throughout 2014 World Cup, concluding on July 13th.
Maradona, a joint FIFA player of the 20th Century with Pele, teams with noted soccer play-by-play commentator and journalist Victor Hugo Morales, to provide post analysis and insight of every World Cup match as well as conducting a broad range of interviews concerning sports, culture and politics. The special guest for the first show is Inacio Lula da Silva, who is Brazil's ex-president and one of the most influential politicians of the country.
Broadcasting from Rio de Janiero, "De Zurda" will take viewers behind the scenes and discuss the most important events surrounding the 2014 Brazil World Cup.
Maradona retired from soccer years ago. After hanging up his cleats, he also served as a manager and coach at other clubs as well as for the National Team of Argentina. From a very early age, Maradona was an obvious talent with his "golden left foot," his changes of pace, his speed and dribbling skills. His talents on the field were an inspiration behind the title of his new show, "De Zurda" which, when translated, means "From Lefty."
