Some people are just bitter and twisted on this thread.
The hand of God was 34 years ago. Get over it.
Name one player that never claimed a dubious handball, off side, throw in, or just fell over in the penalty area. Football is full of it.
In the dribbling clip, Maradona doesn't fall over once, despite the increasing violent attempts to tackle him and bring him down. If they had connected, most of them would broken a leg or worse.
He was the best and most gifted player of his generation, who hauled two bog-standard Argentina teams to World Cup finals almost on his own.
A genius. Flawed, but still a genius.
This is the correct answer.
These people speaking ill of the greatest footballer of his generation, on the day his death is announced, just because he didn't fess up to scoring a goal with his hand against England in such a high stakes game as a World Cup Quarter Final 34 years ago.......
Really need to give their heads a wobble. Christ, judging by some of the reactions on here you'd think he was some kind of fascist dictator who'd killed millions.
Very poor form NSC.
Very poor.
