Diego Maradona had to defend his girlfriend Veronica Ojeda from aggressively minded "Al Shabab" supporters.

The team led by the Argentine lost the match to the mentioned team 0-2, and as the final whistle approached, the opponents' fans started insulting women sitting in important people's tribune.

As the unrest escalated, the women got confused and wanted to leave, which prompted Maradona and several "Al Wasl" football players to intervene.
