RIP Diego Maradona

[jonsie Level 94: Supreme]

Forever remembered for The Hand of God scenario in Mexico 1970

50 years on and still never forgiven for the blatant cheating

Still, what a marvellous footballer

Cardiac arrest aged 60

RIP

[madasaf1sh]

He was one of the greats of his time until the infamous Hand of God episode..

Unfortunately looks like it was alcohol related as well, such a sad loss...

[jonsie Level 94: Supreme]

Yes he liked his alcohol

He was always a little stumpy but he piled the weight on with his love of burgers and alcohol

[AngryOldGuy]

I guess not even The Hand of God can cheat the Reaper

[liggerz87]

Rest in peace i remember hearing he had an op not so long ago

[Cleoriff Level 94: Supreme]

A great footballer, forever remembered by us Brits, for the infamous Hand of God episode.

60 is no age nowadays though.

R.I.P Diego. x

I always remember that match for one of the great goals of any World cup. Enjoy this with the even more legendary South American commentary from the same game:

[jonsie Level 94: Supreme]

Unfortunately the brilliance of that goal was completely overshadw by that 'hand' for the first goal.

We even fought a war over it.....

[Mi-Amigo Level 39: Midshipman]

Although a talented footballer, remembered mostly for the "Hand of God"

R.I.P. Maradona
