Maradona again puts off Asian tour on health grounds
Tue, 28/07/2009
Argentine football legend Diego Maradona has postponed his Asian tour, including a trip to Vietnam, for the second time to have more time for recovery from alcoholism.
Organizers of the tour said the 46-year-old would now be in Vietnam August 3-5 and play a match against Vietnamese stars.
Maradona wishes to send his apologies to Vietnamese fans and assures there will be no more changes, Luis Maria Lestani, one of the organizers, said.
The trip to Vietnam had first been planned for June 1-3 and then put off to June 16-18.
