The greatest performance of the “Atomic Barrel” was the 1986 World Cup. Argentina won the world title, but Maradona remained in the memory of football fans when he performed in the quarterfinals against England, score 2-1. The South American legend scored two goals in that match that will be forever etched in everyone’s memory.
Maradona scored with the “hand of God” and led Argentina to the world title
Diego Armando Maradona achieved supreme glory at the World Championship in Mexico in 1986. In the quarterfinals, Argentina faced England. In the 51st minute, Maradona looked ridiculous by putting the ball at the feet of Peter Shilton, who smashed it into the open goal for FC. Later he described in a visual way how he managed to get the ball into the net: “A little with Maradona’s head and a little with God’s hand“.
Four minutes later, Maradona scored his second shot, described as the “goal of the century.” The Argentine embarked on a magical career, starting from his own half, dribbled everything in his path and led the representative of the “pumas” to the squad with aces, making Lineker’s goal useless in the end.
After the victory against Belgium in the penultimate act, score 2-0, Argentina also beat West Germany in the final and was crowned “queen of the world” at the Azteca stadium.
