Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The Indy Football Podcast team are back to react to the tragic death of Diego Maradona, who sadly passed away this week.

Host Vithushan Ehantharajah is joined by chief football writer Miguel Delaney and senior football correspondent Melissa Reddy on this week’s episode. 

They discuss Maradona’s spellbinding career, Argentina, Napoli, the 1986 World Cup, and, of course, the infamous Hand of God.

They also talk about how adored he is back home as well as in Naples, what his legacy will be and why comparing him to Lionel Messi is an impossible task.

You get all that and more by listening to the podcast below, or by downloading it from wherever you usually do so.
