Apparently.

Football icon Diego Maradona has passed away aged 60 after suffering a cardiorespiratory arrest on Wednesday. Maradona underwent surgery earlier this month to remove a blood clot from his brain.

England came into World Cup ‘86 still smarting from the one-sided heavily mismatched falklands war against Argentina 4yrs earlier.

This was the moment for Diego, the whole Argentine team; they were hot favorites. And then the “hand of god” happened, we were all rooting for the underdog. You could hear the whole world roar when Maradona scored!!

They played beautiful football throughout and went on to lift the cup; solidified my love for the beautiful game. RIP magician...
