"The Argentines celebrated while the Englishmen protested, but to no avail. At the press conference after the game, Maradona further infuriated the English by claiming the goal was scored "a little bit by the Hand of God, another bit by the head of Maradona". Decades later Maradona did admit that the ball came off his hand; however, he still maintains that it was an accident, in spite of the widely-shown video evidence clearly demonstrating otherwise."
that's a direct quote from the article, i am sorry but whoever is the sorry ass writing this trite it's both irresponsible and unacceptable to publish it. It's also idiotic. Maradona mentioned the hand of god, that, for anyone with an iq above that of a lizard means, a hand in soccer terms, he did not need to admit it later on, it's a sad fact that some british bruised ego imperialist is using his geeky keyboard to berate one of football greats. Sad sod.
