Best World Cup goal?

I remember the farewell game from Lothar Matthäus in Germany. Many stars and Maradona were on the pitch. But nobody was looking on Matthäus, the spectators all wanted to see Maradona, despite his chubby appearance. He showed some tricks und the people were going nuts.

“You had a birds eye view, you were right behind him.” A birds eye view is from above Alan!

Who ever has followed football and loves the game must recognise the uniqueness of Diego Armando Maradona, Messi no were on the same level

Maradona won that World Cup on his own. He also went to one of the worst teams in Italy and won them 2 league titles. He didn't go to an already established top 4 club. It would be like Messi going to a club in England today like Burnley and winning the title.

Definitivamente, Mr Gary Lineker es un CABALLERO 👋👋👋👋👋👍🇦🇷

Maradona pure monster ❤️❤️❤️🇧🇩🇧🇩

Two legends of the game and Micah lol

Diego por siempre!!

A birdseye view? not sure Diego was that short Alan.

Maradoo was the King of Football. RIP Legend

Maradona and then later on it was Ronaldinho knocking England out when they had a goal It always has to be a brilliant South American youngster

Always felt when he went on that run for the second goal it was out of guilt for the 1st goal just to balance it up

Messi doesnt have the character and charm of a Maradona. Its not about statistics. Its about the impact and influence to the world Maradona has that. Maradona is the GOAT

he played a different game to all other players. no one comes close. not even pele.

1990 world cup Diego played with enjury and people can't understand what does it mean for player..he played under injections whole world cup and reached finals..try to find his career in details in Barca in national team whow many obstacles had to overcome..than u start thinking and realize that Diego was unbelievable player and person❤❤R.I.P🙏🙏

Maradona is the GOAT

Garry l the good old days

Every time I have to hear about this goal I remember what my mum said at the time which was that Diego might not have found it so easy to go past all the England players if they hadn't still been in shock from the first goal and I think there is a lot of truth in that. He scored a similar goal against Belgium which I think would be a better one to choose as he hadn't just cheated prior to that so hadn't left the opposing team stunned as to what just happened. I do end up agreeing with Lineker about Maradona in general though. I really didn't like him as a kid but the more I found out about him the more I thought he was probably a very troubled individual with great talent who probably wanted to do the best for his loved ones. RIP.

In terms of the Maradona and Messi debate, and the fuetbol goat debate in General, i dont know how to judge or analyse who is the best footballer, considering the different eras these players play/played in. But what i will say is that the achievement of winning with napoli and Argentina, in the 80s as a football era, in the best league at the time in serie a, is beyond impressive by Maradona imo. Also, every serie a team in that time had all time great teams and Quality players in every team, not to mention the physical and rough style of play at the time in Football. Also what messi was doing in his later Barca years and the world cup in 2022 was equally impressive. But for me, i would say Maradona stayed and Performed for a longer time than messi in average teams, while messi played for great teams for the majority of his career, especially at the club level with Barcelona. I would ib other words say that messi played on great Barca teams from 2004 when he began his professional career with Barca, until 2017 when neymar left and the msn era was over. Because what Messi did with that good but maybe not great barca teams from 2017 to 2021 was the most impressive achievement in Messis career together with what Messi did with Argentina, with Argentina winning the 2022 world cup in Qatar. Mainly because those Barca teams was not as great contenders as in the years past. Either way for me there is no goat but great and in their own right inspiring footballers because it is a team game after all. No player can do it alone and the player is only as good as the te around the player is although some players might be more distinctive than others but every player is still important to the Teams success imo😊❤🙌⚽

Maradona had a similar run year before and got chance from se angle but shot and it was saved - so when he was 1-1 which shilton he remembered that so went around him and scored - to have the skill is one thing but under that pressure to have time to change mind is just as impressive

I really like Gary, because he actually loves the game per se and I know he is joking, but the day someone do a REAL analysis of the whole game, would notice that to the very least Fenwick deserved two red cards (including an elbow that was quite atrocious), the fouls specially on Diego that day were way out of line...but I guess it's part of the twisted way we all tend to see the game (specially old farts like me in the past) that when violence or mere witty fouls are made it's part of the game but when the offensive players take some advantage it's not. Even with more protecting rules, it still feels that the majority of us "wrongly" still lean to this approach

❤️🇦🇷

Is gary going to this years world cup ? hope so ,they need a good lecture ,

Bwoy Linker cannot let go as to carry belly after what short man did that day

Absolute travesty that Maxi Rodriguez goal didn't make it into the top 10!

D10S

Birds eye view, you were right behind it 🤣🤣

Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer doing these top tens I understand, but Micah Richards!? WTF has he done to be doing these!? LOL.

Errr the world egg cup is in my garden need a flood light x 🐅🐅🐅🐅 ee eee ohhh ahhh cantona

The best of his 2 goals in that game was the Hand of God one ✊⚽ 😂😂😂😂😂😂

messi is not even 1% of MARADONA. Not even Top 100. That's the difference.

Scum always sticks together!!!

Is it just me who's noticed every time this show is on the pundits are wearing footwear with white soles and is there a reason for this? Now I've got a pair from Massimo Dutti "not cheap either" 😊👍🏿

The best bit was and is, Shilton STILL giving out about Diego, even to this day and not getting the ball first in that game. Deal with it Shilton

Had Maradona and Pele swapped places, Maradona wins 4 World Cups and Pele 0

It wasn’t a foul before the play. England’s player dive.

Amazing organization from Qatar . A small country did and doing fantastic job . I expect Spain to win the cup .

Gary it was not a foul...the English player made a mistake in the pass

A ver muchachos les habla un argentino promedio aficionado del fútbol de hecho un gran futbolista frustrado 😖 Maradona en y para Argentina es Dios!!!!Messi es un gran jugador fin

Messi is no where near Maradona - two WCs

Richards thinks football only happened the last thirty years, complete tool

Demystifying the myth of Maradona lead an average squad Previous World Cup Winners in Brazil 1970 and Argentina 1986 +>>> 1970 Brazil Squad - Pele (2) +>>> 1986 Argentina Squad - Daniel Passarella (1) Champions League/Copa Libertadores winners in in Brazil 1970 and Argentina 1986 +>>> 1970 Brazil Squad - Pele (2), Jairzinho (1), Wilson Piazza (1) +>>> 1986 Argentina Squad - Ricardo Bochini (4), Oscar Ruggeri (2), Nestor Clausen (1), Nery Pumpido (1), Ricardo Giusti (1), Hector Enrique (1), Jorge Burruchaga (1), Sergio Batista (1), Claudio Borghi (1), Hector Zelada (1) Club World Cup/Intercontinental Cup winners in Brazil 1970 and Argentina 1986 +>>> 1970 Brazil Squad - Pele (3), Caju (1) +>>> 1986 Argentina Squad - Ricardo Bochini (2), Oscar Ruggeri (1), Nestor Clausen (1), Nery Pumpido (1), Ricadrdo Giusti (1), Hector Enrique (1), Jorge Burruchaga (1) +> Maradona never won Champions League/Copa Libertadores or Club World Cup/Intercontinental Cup in his career despite playing for Greatest European/South American Teams like Barca and Boca Juniors but most of his Argentine Teammates won it. +> Pele won the 3 Club World Cups/Intercontinental Cups, 2 Champions League/Copa Libertadores and 7 League Titles with Santos, and Pele won it for the first time in Club's History.

First off maradonna punches a ball in to the net ,should have been sent off and secondly it emerges that he was probably on drugs,

So Lineker thinks Maradona is the best he ever saw despite the fact he admitted neither of his goals should have stood and therefore he wouldn't have won the World Cup. So therefore all he would have won was two Seria A titles and a UEFA Cup with Napoli. Lineker honestly thinks that's the best player he ever saw? And were the pitches really that bad? How do we know modern players wouldn't have been able to play just as well on them?

Messi CAN'T do with a ball what Maradona could do. Nobody can. THE GREATEST OF THEM ALL!!! MARADONA(10)

MY MANY GARY LOOKS LIKE ROLPH HARRIS
