Football legend Diego Maradona's last words before he died were: "I don't feel well."
Maradona suffered a fatal heart attack on Wednesday (local time), two weeks after he had surgery to treat a brain bleed.
The 60-year-old legend ate breakfast in the morning at his home in Tigre, Buenos Aires, then spoke to his nephew Johnny Esposito, telling him he didn't feel well - "me siento mal" in his native Spanish - and was going to lie down again.

Maradona was home from the hospital and had a nurse looking after him, who called emergency services.
