Diego Maradona scored the Hanf of God and the Goal of the Century goals on this day 37 years ago.
Maradona may no longer be with us but his goals will forever live in the annals of football history. On June 22, 1986, Argentina played England at the Azteca stadium in the quarter finals of the World Cup and it was one of the most memorable matches in World Cup history.
Argentina would take a 1-0 lead with a truly, one of a kind, unique goal. Every one knows the match by now but Diego Maradona outjumped Peter Shilton, the English goalkeeper and scored.
As Maradona put it, the goal was “a little with the head of Maradona and a little with the hand of God”. The goal stood, Argentina celebrated but the celebrations were far from over.
Just minutes later, Maradona would score the greatest goal in World Cup history. The Goal of the Century.
He would dribble the English team, starting in his own half, humiliating them as he ran towards goal and scored the second of the match. This was truly Diego Maradona’s World Cup.
At 2-0, Gary Lineker would score England’s only goal of the match with Argentina getting the win. Everything about the match has already been said in the last 37 years. Just enjoy the highlights or the full match below.
