    Maradona was light years ahead of anyone else.
    Like Georgie Best, Diego got kicked black and blue every game, but still danced past world class defenders like they weren't even there.
    Only Ronaldinho has ever come close to pure joyful football that Maradona excelled at.
    Rest in peace Diego.
    A true man of his people.

      Agree. I was in Culiacan, Mexico afew years back when Diego was managing their 2nd Division team and stayed at the hotel that he was living in. My luck, they had an away match and he wasn't around. All the employees said he was brilliant and the waiters at a restaurant across the street said he could be brilliant or dismissive at worst. Unfortunately, thats the closest I got to the man. The Netflix series on him in Mexico is great watch.

    Diego Maradona’s “hand of God” cheating goal was by far the most memorable moment in my history of being a football fan. However, I forgave him not long after because he was such a towering genius of a footballer and gave me such enormous pleasure watching him. He all but the 1986 World Cup for Argentina on his own and they would definitely have never have won it without him!

      To be fair, Fenwick could have easily tackled him, but stood there, because he'd been booked.
      Maradona ran past him, and slotted it in. It was Terry Fenwick's fault, without a doubt. And he admits it too.
      So, a great goal, but not the best ever.

    Él nunca abandonó a los suyos y eso se veia en la cancha, en su forma de jugar. Amaba a su pais y se veia en su forma de vivir y en la cancha tambien.
    No habra otro Maradona, ademas fe gran furbolista, exelente persona. Un corazón enorme, amó a sus padres como a nada igual que a sus hijas. Dieguito fue algo excepcional...!

    In hockey, it is illegal to kick the puck in the net but countless goals are scored by feet. In 100 + years of hockey, nobody has said " Not a good goal Ref - I kicked it in"

    I was gutted when he did "The hand of God", but that second goal he scored against England was more than world class.

    While Maradonna was indeed a great footballer, Gary Lineker was a great footballer and is a great human. A man so humble, who was Maradonna's opposite number, showing up at his house, speaking Spanish and interviewing courageously yet courteously, simply underlines Gary's true greatness. Rather sad Diego couldn't more graciously honor his former foe who'd traveled so far to interview him and share his story.

      I believe Maradonna did honor him, he was kind, gracious, generous, appreciative, invited him into his home to have lunch with his family. Even admitted to using his hand! Yes of course he got lucky with the decision to let the goal stand, but thats down to the referee.

    I think 86 was the last truly great World Cup, the innocence and it just being about football and fans, with a few spicy bits, it’s too commercial now. That plus the greatest goal in World Cup history on a pitch that was a vegetable patch.

    Love him or hate him, Maradona has gone down as a legend on and off the pitch. Meanwhile, the English are still sitting on a butt so hurt from goal he scored 38 years ago, forgetting their centuries old looting and ransacking of other countries riches.

    sono italiano e ho vissuto la mia gioventu' quando Diego giocava nella nostra serie A ; anni magnifici per il nostro calcio e quello di tutto il mondo , campioni stupendi come lui e Zico ,Platini , Rumenigge , Van Basten , vedere u vero gentleman come Gary che lo incontra come grande amico nonostante il gol di mano rubato , significa che Diego comunque sara' sempre un'icona degli anni 80 , come Cassius Clay negli anni 70

    Interesting when he's with Mike Tyson. They both have so much in common as professional sportsmen who were immense talents, the best in the world by far and in their absolute primes at the same time in the mid to late 80s. But both became very troubled in their personal lives and went down the slippery slope into doom around the same time too.

      @@dondamon4669 Which is why he made $300 million in 5 years and was endorsed by Muhammad Ali and the best boxers in the world at the time. If talking about football vs boxing as sports, then yes, a legendary footballer will usually be greater, because football is the biggest sport on the planet. With the exception of Muhammad Ali, who was also "friends" with Pele. They admired each other.
