Watch: Diego Maradona Gives Bizarre Post-Match Interview

Maradona was asked about his opinion of Mexico's top-flight soccer division, Liga MX.

Diego Maradona has made plenty of headlines for his comments over the years. But following Dorardos de Sinaloa's 1–0 defeat to Juárez on Saturday, Maradona found himself at a loss for words.

Maradona coaches Dorados, which plays in Mexico's second-flight division Acensco MX. Following Saturday's loss, he was asked about his opinion of Mexico's top-flight division, Liga MX, by ESPN's broadcast team.

It took Maradona at least five seconds to respond, aside from a prolonged "uhhhh."

Perhaps Maradona is more concerned with his club's current standing in Ascenso MX and doesn't have the time to worry about the talent level of Liga MX. Dorados is currently seventh in the league table with 22 points acrrued through 14 matches. Juárez tops the league with 35 points.

Dorados next plays against Atlético San Luis on Wednesday in the first leg of the Apertura Finals.
