Argentinian football legend Diego
Maradona, seen here in June 2005, admitted for the first time
that he had deliberately used his hand
to score a controversial goal against England in the 1986
World Cup (AFP) | |
Diego Maradona acknowledged that he struck the
ball with his hand in the famous "Hand of God" goal against England in the
1986 World Cup quarterfinals.
Speaking on his local television talk show Monday night, Maradona
called one of soccer's most controversial goals "something that just came
out of me. It was a bit of mischief."
Maradona appeared to punch the ball into the net,
and officials allowed the goal to stand
despite protests by the English team. Argentina went on
to win the 1986 quarterfinal match 2-1 and then win the World Cup.
In his most detailed comments yet, Maradona said
he was unable to reach the ball for a header
when he went up against the taller English
goalkeeper, Peter Shilton.
Shilton "was very tall. He didn't see anything, and a teammate told
him" afterward what happened, said Maradona.
After the score, Maradona said he quickly realized the line referee had
allowed the goal but none of his teammates had rushed to celebrate with
him -- themselves figuring the goal would be waved off.
"I was waiting for my teammates to embrace me and no one came," said
Maradona, who was the team captain. "I told them, 'Come hug me or the
referee isn't going to allow it."'
In his 20-year career before retiring in 1997, Maradona starred at
Argentinos Juniors and Boca Juniors and in Europe. He also led Argentina
to the 1990 World Cup final and won Italian and Argentine league titles.
In 1991, Maradona failed a drug test and was banned for 15 months. Nine
years later, FIFA chose him and Pele as the best players in soccer
history.
Recently, he was appointed vice president of Boca Juniors. And with his
new TV show, Maradona, 45, has returned to the limelight after years of dealing with cocaine addiction
and health problems. (Agencies) |
