Maradona's effort was voted FIFA World Cup Goal of the Century, scoring 18,062 votes, nearly 8000 more than Michael Owen's effort for England against Argentina in 1998.

With Argentina leading 1-0 after Maradona's infamous 'Hand of God' goal in the 1986 quarter final, El Pibe went from the ridiculous to the sublime.

Receiving the ball from Hector Enrique, just inside his own half, he went past five English defenders - Steve Hodge, Peter Beardsley, Peter Reid, Terry Butcher and Terry Fenwick - before rounding Peter Shilton and sliding the ball in. Jorge Valdano was available for a tap in but thankfully Maradona chose to finish the move off alone.
