The cheating was unacceptable, but forgivable.
His action ( a steal) and his justification (God’s Name) broke at least two commandments.
The “hand of God” is blasphemy, it is to suggest that God would knowingly do what is wrong
JUDGEMENT
And we all know that the sentence for blasphemy is death
KARMA
And the irony is that by his alcohol and drug abuse he was the executioner, the cheating Dago
There, like many I feel a little better for the injustice and disappointment suffered in 1986
REDEMPTION
We would not have been able to sing about “thirty years of hurt” in 1996

George Best died on the same date 15 years ago.

Georgie Best nearly made it to age 60, Maradona has now joined him in the big go go bar in the sky.

What a bunch of pathetic losers on this site.

Maradona was class on the football pitch. Great entertainment. Probably the most talented footballer ever. If you cannot appreciate that, maybe you should be looking to take up a different sport.

And if you want to point the blame at someone for ruining England's hopes, there have been plenty of English candidates over the last 54 years.

He may have been a fabulous footballer but unfortunately, he was a crackhead and a cheat too. Irrespective of his great talent he came across as a flawed character. There are many more people in the world worthier of respect.

Do you think the same of Lance Armstrong and Ben Johnson?

Maybe people can forgive him for cheating for a goal, however blatant it was, but not the drug taking whilst still a footballer.

Diego was a great footballer and a poxy father.

We can either blame Diego for not getting involved (in the life of his son) or blame Diego's girlfriend for getting pregnant without much consent.

what's the difference between players diving for penalties and using your hand to score? Or is that not the reference you mean by calling him a "cheat" ?
As far as international football is concerned: the greatest footballer ever. single handedly making a bang average team win the world cup.

As has been said, a drug taking cheat. Let's hope there isn't anyone like him ever again.

I think the only other player who could make that claim was Garrincha in 1962 so he was in rare company. Lots of great players in great teams but very few can be said to have single handedly won the world cup.

If he'd used both hands the referee and lino might have spotted it

 


Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

The picture still looks odd in that although he was six inches shorter and his arm was bent on contact he still comfortably out jumped Shilton who barely left the ground.

Great player RIP D Maradona

This is a tired and lazy argument.

The keeper wouldn't expect the striker to stick his hand out in what would otherwise have been a reasonably comfortable clearance.

The next question is would the next goal have happened if the England players weren't shell shocked from the cheating 4 minutes earlier.

The world cup win should probably have an * next to it forever.

The guy cheated at every opportunity.

There's a photo of him doing the rounds on social media in a shower with two very short, very young looking women. It's so dodgy there's not a chance I'm going to share it.

I think the referee and linesman knew and didn't particularly care.
