The former No.10 lamented the Albiceleste's 0-1 loss to Germany in the World Cup final at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana stadium in July.
"We didn't have the players to take the game to Germany," he said. "And Germany had 50 more variations than we did. It wasn't a balanced match. Argentina didn't have the conviction to win."
After thrashing South Korea 4-1 in Argentina's second match, Maradona was asked at the post-match press conference why he always hugs and kisses his players when celebrating, to which he replied that he was definitely straight.
"Well I still prefer women,” Diego proclaimed.
“I am dating Veronica who is blond and 31-years-old. No I have not gone limp wristed [homosexual]. But I like to acknowledge and congratulate my players when they play as well as they did today. That was a pleasing result and display. It was a job well done."
