Diego Maradona and the Hand of God

by Alan on May 5th, 2006

Yes the Maradona loving continues for another day as we take a look at his most infamous goal of an infamous career - the legendary “Hand of God” goal against England in Mexico 1986.

Maradona has admitted recently that it was hand ball (no sh1t Sherlock!) but that in South America it isn’t considered cheating, rather more cheeky than cheating is how he put it and as it was against the English who still haven’t stopped moaning about it twenty years later I think we’ll put on our cheeky grins and enjoy it.

Seeing as he scored probably the best goal of all time in the same game it’s a shame that this one gets all the publicity even now but for pure controversy nobody ever did it quite like Diego Armando Maradona.
