Former Argentina international defender Fernando Cáceres is in grave condition after being shot in the head during an armed robbery.
The 40-year-old, who helped the Albiceleste win the 1993 Copa America and played at the 1994 World Cup, was shot in the head early Sunday after a group of carjackers tried to steal his BMW in Buenos Aires.
Argentina coach Diego Maradona visited his former teammate on Monday and told reporters outside the hospital that crime was rife in the Argentine capital.
"This is a time bomb, going out is a constant danger," Maradona told television station TyCSports.
"This happens every day, nobody does anything and something must be done.
"If there was a person who did not deserve this, it was him. He will have another chance, because he is a great guy.
"Now he is in hands of God and I whish he helps him."
