For every Ronaldo, there's a Shevchenko. Sometimes, great reputations come at a great cost yet
fail to deliver. Shevchenko is a great player to start with. Feared throughout Europe, his
performances for Dynamo Kiev and A.C. Milan saw him become one of the most lethal strikers in the
world.
As part of Maradona's two month ban for his, uh, orally themed tirade after Argentina qualified
for the World Cup, he is not allowed to participate in or even attend any FIFA events, including
things like Friday's draw. To be sure this was absolutely clear, FIFA even went so far as to write
to the Argentinian Football Federation just to remind them of this.
Buenos Aires, Argentina.
