Hand of God goal
The Hand of God goal (Spanish: Mano de Dios) was scored by Diego Maradona in the quarter-final match of the 1986 FIFA World Cup between England and Argentina, played on 22 June 1986 in Mexico City's Estadio Azteca. Argentina won 2-1 and for some English people the legacy of this event perhaps best symbolizes the rivalry between the two teams.
