In the 1986 World Cup Quarter final against England, Maradona used his hand to score from a cross, the goal is infamously known as 'The Hand of God' goal. The goal is well remembered by England fans as they till date criticise Diego Maradona.
But just four minutes later he scored the goal which is known as the greatest World Cup goal of all time, he started a run inside his own half and beat 5 England players before he put it past Peter Shilton the England keeper.
Argentina won 2-1 and went on to win the World Cup.
