Diego Maradona is arguably the greatest soccer player to ever live. He's a short, stocky attacking player with endless talent and ability. He was born in Argentina and has played for Boca Juniors and Napoli in the Serie A amongst many other top European sides.
He scored a famous goal against England in the World Cup called, "The Hand of God." He punched the ball with his fist over the goalies head and was not caught by the referee. Argentina went on to win that World Cup. You can see this controversial goal on YouTube.
He is currently the Head Coach of the Argentinean National Team. Despite his rocky off field life, his talent is undeniable. Go to your local soccer shop and buy a video of Maradona, he is truly a special player to watch.
