HISTORY:

When the World Cup came to Mexico in 1986, a memorable tournament followed, culminating in a thrilling championship match. Argentina blitzed its way into the Final, propelled by a Diego Maradona at the height of his powers. A West Germany team was waiting for them, eager to make amends for their loss in the Final in Spain in 1982. The South Americans took a two-goal lead in front of the 115,000 spectators at the Azteca Stadium, but the persistent Germans showed their prowess at freezing the champagne late on with goals from Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and Rudi Voller.

Maradona unleashed yet another stroke of brilliance with six minutes left, flicking a flawless pass into the path of Jorge Burruchaga, who surged past the German defense and slid the ball past Harald Schumacher. La Albiceleste's 3-2 victory handed them their second world championship and guaranteed No. 10's incomparable No. 10 eternities of glory.
