No more quotes from banned Maradona

Diego Maradona, who was banned yesterday for two months by FIFA over his sexually-explicit rant last month, has been silenced.

The football great, who was accompanied by an Argentine football official and bodyguards, did not speak to reporters during his swift passage through Zurich airport and in and out of FIFA headquarters.

Coach Maradona's outburst came after Argentina's 1-0 win over Uruguay in October, which allowed the two-time world champions to squeeze narrowly into next year's finals after a low-key and tense qualifying campaign.
The 49-year-old sporting icon, a hero in Argentina after skippering the 1986 World Cup-winning team, told
journalists to "suck it and keep sucking it". He also participated in the 1990 and 1994 World Cups.
