Watched the wonderful Diego Maradona documentary again last night.
1. What an unbelievable player he was. Simply mesmerising and I remember watching Mexico 86 when he was at his pomp.
2. A real shame how he was exploited for his talent. He recognised the path to destruction he was on in Naples and asked to leave but the President "his jailor" refused to sell at great cost to DM. Also seemed to be given a lot of injections to keep him playing.
3. A real eye opener the way the Italians and the football world turned on him after Argentina knocked Italy out of Italia 90 and his talent began to wane.
4. He was completely justified with the Hand of God after Terry Fenwick put in two shocking challenges on him clearly with the intent to injure him. Now that was proper cheating. Maybe Shilton should have a look at that?
5. What an unbelievable player he was.
RIP Diego.

I saw it in the cinema with a group including a couple of people with almost no interest in football, and even they thought it was brilliant.

I see the Scotland Ladies team observing a minutes silence for the woman beater Maradona.
I hope they weren’t aware of it otherwise their skin must have been crawling.

TBH I'd say Pele beats Maradona hands down in the greatest ever debate. Messi's also in with a shout (like Pele, his longevity at the top of his game has been remarkable) but at international level he never really displayed Maradona's magic.

Maradona:Goal Of The Century
I must admit I have always thought that Maradona’s second goal was an own goal by our very own Terry Butcher
This video from a different angle shows that it was definitely not the case
