The Argentinean captain single handedly won the world cup for Argentina in the year 1986 in Mexico.
He Diego Maradona did not win the Golden Boot, That was that year won by Gary Lineker. of England.
But the 1986 quarter final match played between England and Argentina is spoken about even today and the English are still very angry over it, and still feel cheated.
In the match Diego Maradona illegally used his hand to score a goal, if you look at that particular picture very closely it shows the English goalkeeper Peter Shilton comes forward to punch the ball, but he misses it by inches, but Diego Maradona can be seen with both of his eyres shut as he was afraid Peter Shilton would punch him.. Maradona said he would gladly score one goal with his left hhand and one with his right hand..
But Why do the Argentineans hate the English?Now England and Argentina fought a naval war over a Island near Argentina called FALKLAND ISLANDS., both claimed the Island. England sent a few aircraft carriers and their HARRIER jets anfd defeated the Argentinean navy.
