Times are tough in Argentina, while the new president attempts to tame inflation, and poverty is on the rise. But there's one sport, and one very special place, that brings people together. As part of our Sacred Spaces series, reporter Lautaro Grinspan takes us to the the 80-year-old soccer stadium La Bombonera in Buenos Aires, Argentina. La Bombonera was home to the late soccer great Diego Maradona, and has become a kind of holy site for Argentina's soccer fanatics.
