Diego Maradona's first World Cup finished in disrespect.
He disfavored himself again four years after the fact, yet it finished in triumph.
No World Cup previously or since has been directed by one player as much as the 1986 competition might have been. For a 18-year-old in my first year out of secondary school, as yet living at home since it cost me nothing and Mum and Dad had as of late purchased a video recorder, Mexico 86 had me snared.
Gathering play was moderately uneventful - has Mexico facilitated through, Denmark bested the "Gathering of Death" and were talked of as conceivable champs in the wake of beating West Germany, and England required a win in their third match against Poland to get past
Be that as it may, the second round started a string of essential matches. Igor Belanov got a cap trap for the Soviet Union however couldn't stop them getting thumped out 4-3 by Belgium, France finished Italy's rule with a 2-0 triumph and Denmark yielded in the wake of taking an early lead against Spain as Emilio "The Vulture" Butragueno scored multiple times in a 5-1 win.
In the quarterfinals, England met Argentina, with outrage regarding the Falklands War as yet rising for the two nations. Maradona opened the scoring in the second half with his "Hand of God" objective, punching the ball past heavy footed goalkeeper Peter Shilton and multiplied the lead with the most superb individual objective in Cup history. At the point when England wisened up and expedited substitute John Barnes, they all of a sudden looked perilous and he set up an objective for Gary Lineker before verging on rehashing the trap as Argentina held tight.
Maradona scores his side's first objective past English goalkeeper Peter Shilton by utilization of his hand.
The last-eight match among France and Brazil was a delight. Careca scored a wafer to put Brazil ahead yet Michel Platini adjusted and goalkeeper Joel Bats spared a second-half punishment from Zico. The match went to punishments, Bats spared from Socrates, Platini impacted high and wide however Luis Fernandez won it in sudden-demise for France.
In a rehash of the 1982 elimination round coordinate, France confronted West Germany and the West Germans again triumphed to make their fourth last in the previous six competitions, while Maradona scored another superlative solo objective to see off Belgium in the other semi.
Maradona was watched by Lothar Matthaus in the last and his effect was diminished, however regardless he had a job in each of the three Argentinian objectives. As everybody expected, West Germany originated from 2-0 down in the second half to level yet Maradona's great one-contact go with seven minutes to play sent Jorge Burruchaga clear and his complete was unerring.
