I think the referee and linesman knew and didn't particularly care. It's hard to believe that it was missed by both of them.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

Surely Diego broke this 16 year olds heart in 86' and doubly so when shortly after we realized how blatant a hand ball it was that the ref did not apparently see. Felt animosity towards the man for a long time for this and the way he generally acted off the field. I walked a mile and a half on crutches in 1991 to go watch him at Wembley, only to realize he wasnt even in the team But here we are, decades later, knowing an absolutely brilliant flawed willing to do anything to win player has passed on. Thought i would almost feel good about it, but i dont. RIP Diego.

Never quite understand why people idolise people like Maradona Best etc, ok they were very very good at kicking a bag of air, but they were drunks and drug addicts, the same people who idolise these wasters look down on homeless people, many of whom are addicts, double standards

Michael Owen dived to win a penalty against Argentina. Michel Owen cheated. But he's English, so that's ok then!

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

From an interview today with Terry Fenwick [Link] , Fenwick says he ruined my England so to be fair we have to be grateful for something . He also says “And when I turned round and he was warming up to come back on, I was thinking ‘what the hell have I got to do to stop this man?’.
One supporter of hacking argued that without it "you will do away with the courage and pluck of the game, and I will be bound to bring over a lot of Frenchmen who would beat you with a week's practice -Blackheath secretary at first meeting of the F.A |

That's right. he cheated. But these players didn't eh? Oh look, there's Fenwick in '86...
Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes. |

Also michael owen was not a drug addict nor a drunk, and as far as i have read, did not treat women as meat, Maradona was an arsehole of a person albeit a good footballer

I watched the Diego Maradona film on All4 last night. Suggest that others do the same. Gives some insight into why one might feel the need to take drugs living a life that us mere mortals couldn’t begin to understand. For me, taking Napoli to their 2nd league title when he was spiralling downwards was his greatest achievement. As for the hand of god... it was 34 years ago... I was over it by ‘87!!! RIP.
