Ex-players team up to tackle dementia in soccer-mad Spain

MADRID - Eight senior citizens huddled around a table stare at a photo of a young Diego Maradona in a red and blue FC Barcelona jersey projected onto a screen at a Madrid retirement home.

Former Atletico Madrid defender Roberto Solozabal, a member of Spain's gold medal soccer squad at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, and ex-Valladolid right back Javier Torres pace the room as they gently coax the group to identify the Argentine legend.

"Great," says Torres, the sleeves of his gray sweater rolled up to his elbows, after one of the senior citizens correctly identifies Maradona, who played for Barcelona in the early 1980s.
