    In the World Cup of 1994 in the U.S.A., Maradonna of Argentina, was tested after the match against Nigeria,and

    was found to have used "ephedrine", not permitted by FIFA.

    He was banned from playing soccer during the World Cup, and

    was given more than a year as punishment. Although Argentina, came in with a strong team, in the 1994 World

    Cup, everything went downhill, and without their captain

    for the remainder of the matches in the competetion, they were soon defeated.
