The Russian Challenge – Maradona accepted the challenge of the HUBLOT Million Dollar Wall

Are you a soccer fan? If so then we are sure you have heard of MARADONA. From Argentina to the rest of the world, Diego Maradona, also known as "the footballer of the 20th Century", has been crowned with a host of distinctions. A brilliant, intense, wholehearted genius, he has scored some of the most spectacular goals in the history of football, and at the age of 25 achieved his childhood dream of leading Argentina’s national team to victory in the 1986 World Cup. In 1995 he was awarded the Ballon d’Or – the ultimate distinction for an international footballer – for his career achievements. Most recently, he was an outstanding and passionate head coach and leader of his national team at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Well, for the first time in his career, MARADONA has accepted the challenge of the HUBLOT Million Dollar Wall, in Moscow. On 29 September at 7:00pm, on the roof terrace of the Tsum department store in the heart of Moscow, Argentinian football legend Diego Maradona for the first time faced the challenge of the Hublot Million Dollar Wall. He was delighted to accept the invitation from Hublot to meet the following challenge: 10 balls, at 10 targets from 10 metres, with just of different diameters, each representing a value of $25,000 to $300,000. Everything that was raised will be donated in its entirety to the Raisa Gorbacheva Memorial Institute for Children Hematology and Transplantation at the Pavlov State Medical University of Saint Petersburg, to establish a registry for unrelated bone marrow donors.
