Ligue 1 counterparts PSG and Bordeaux came together to pay tribute to the late Diego Maradona ahead of their contest at the Parc des Princes this evening.

There’s no love lost between the two sides, but when a player and character like Maradona is lost, the whole football world joins together in a state of mourning.

Though France was never fortunate enough to provide residence for Maradona during his playing career, that doesn’t mean that they don’t appreciate his contributions to the game.

Watch how PSG, Bordeaux and the match officials combined to create an ‘M’ in honour of the late legend ahead of tonight’s clash between the two sides on the champions’ home soil.

This is quite touching – Angel Di Maria’s face says it all.
