They keep showing the goals v England. Remember watching the game live. After the 1st goal it was as if he thought hed better score another.
The ball is bobbing up on an uneven surface an incredible goal and he was superb all tournament.
86 was all about Maradona. Ive never seen anything like that since and dont think an individuals impact on a tournament will ever match it.
But yes Ronaldo is a better role model.
Nowhere near as good as a player and he himself is a great player.

Gascoigne over MaradonaOriginally Posted by SLUDGE FACTORY
****inell Sludge, go and have a lie down butt.
Which undoubtedly contributed to his on field issues. Being injected with cortisone every match couldn’t have helped his lifestyle.
I thought it was Arthur, half of fcuking Europe.
Never heard that sung !!
This is what I heard sung
That foul when the butcher of Bilbao did him has to be one of the most brutal of all time. To come back from that injury and do what he did. Unbelievable.
It was Diego after 86 and changed to that one after England got done in Euro 88.😂
I’ve heard both versions
I dont see anything wrong with his lifestyle. He's a legend, I met him one and I'll never forget that night in Cuba back in 2001
We sang the Diego song for at least 2 years.Never heard that sung !!
This is what I heard sung
Didn't you lose your voices, after singing for that long.
He's treated like a god in Argentina and Naples, he even has his own church dedicated to him in Naples. The issue with Maradona is much deeper than people think. The best thing people could do is a find out about him, his characteristics, the political landscape in Argentina and the class divide between northern and southern Italy, and how he probably did more to unite the poorest and most vulnerable in those regions than any politician ever could.
It changed to Arthur europe after england were stiffed at Euro 88, before that it was Maradona, between 86 and 88.Never heard that sung !!

Sorry hilts, i should pay more attention, same reply!
Is this true,if so wow.
If the people who are calling him a cheat because of his hand ball goal against England they’re talking through their arse, drug taking issues are another matter but anyone who’s played football at any level who’s not been involved in or scored a dodgy goal and not put their hands up and told the ref to disallow it is a cheat as well. It’s up to the officials and if they award a goal any player worth his salt will take it all day long. I’ve often wondered how the English press would have reacted had, say, Gascoigne been awarded a similar goal, The Sun would have revelled in a ‘Ave That, Gazza Hands It To ‘Em’ type headline, as would the other tabloids. Great, great player, a character of the like football needs more of.
Yup, i think that Feedy needs to elaborate.
Loved Maradona, read a number of books on him. ‘ El Diego’ being my favourite just for how he describes vaccinating the English.
Have you visited Naples? Interesting place, how they idolise Maradona is quite something. They see him as representing their city, the poor and he was basically the rebel pissing all over the Northern establishment.
I don't.
He got away with it, ****'em. He said that he pick pocketed the english, where he grew up and in his culture, what he did was fair game.
I'd have loved to have spent an hour or two with Maradona, he may well have been a proper ****, but i'd have loved to have been ableto find out.
It’ll end with them sharing a line of beak and Diego agreeing with Feedy that socialism is an outdated philosophy and that capitalism and the private sector will cure all the world’s ills.
Never been to Naples, would love to go, and maybe travel around Southern Italy. They were seen as shite by the Northern establishment.
