First of all Maradona is a HE.
The second thing about VAR, well I don't agree with you there.
VAR will help a lot in the future because the game will become more fluid and the teams will score more goals because the defenders will not make as much fouls as they're making today.
For example something around 1/5 fouls gets sanctioned, either reff doesn't see it or he doesn't wan't to see it but with VAR and all people watching at that slow mo they will be forced to sanction any bad tackle. In the beginning there will be lots of video watching but in time the players will learn that ever action they make is being watched and they can't hide anything anymore.
There will no longer bee diving and simulating, Neymar will not get so many "fouls", free kicks and fake penalties.
The game will become fair and better team will win.
We had some controversies on this Championship when some refs didn't want to look the VAR even after 5 refs from VAR Room pointed out that something is wrong. So at this moment it's all in main ref's hands and people can be bought, influenced or they can have an agenda of their own.
Everything will change when FIFA passes the rule that watching VAR is a must, not an option, for a main ref.
