AFA Site Hacked

Posted by Juan Arango 9.12.2009


When things could not be worse for the Argentine football federation, they did. A group of hackers calling themselves KKR were able to access the federation's website and place a picture of head coach Diego Maradona with a Brazilian jersey. Underneath the still they added "a picture is worth a thousand words." This is the third time ever that this has happened, but the first time ever that they were ever able to place a picture on the site.

This all comes in light of the tremendous amount of criticism that El Diego is enduring after the Albiceleste's consecutive defeats against Brazil and Paraguay. For the Argentines it was their third consecutive defeat in World Cup qualifying being that they lost to Ecuador in Quito back in June.

The photo that was placed on the main page of the website was a still of a Guaraná Antartica commercial the former Napoli star had filmed back in 2006 alongside Ronaldo and Kaká.



Since the attack, there is no access to the site for the rest of the weekend. So people will only be able to see the federation crest.
