19 YEAR OLD DIEGO MARADONA - UNBELIEVABLE PERFORMANCE VS ENGLAND is a highlights compilation of Maradona's every touch, skills, and tricks against England played in 1980 at Wembley. Having just won the 1979 World Youth Championships in Tokyo, Maradona arrived in England as the "South American Player of the Year", and facing off against Ballon d' Or winner Kevin Keegan, Maradona put on the kind of stunning performance that not only enthralled the Wembley crowd, but featured a tantalizing preview of the "Goal of the Century" that he would famously score six years later in Mexico against the English.
In this digital age where the achievements of yesterday's football greats are far too often easily forgotten, or worse dismissed as being somewhat inferior to those of today's so-called "megastars" and "G.O.A.Ts.", this footage is a timely reminder that Maradona's God given talent with the ball remains unsurpassed. At nineteen, this teenage prodigy was already orchestrating and dictating matches beyond the capabilities of his World Cup winning comrades, and those of the opposing seasoned international English players. So just enjoy the show.

Maradona told a story that after he missed the goal in the pile up shown at 3:20, his brother told him that he should have dribbled the goalie. Years later he remembered it and in fact dribbled the goalie when he scored against England in Mexico.

@salsabil44 Год назад

When you look at some of those assaults on Maradona by the England players - how many would have been reds today? - you get a glimpse of how dangerous the game was for skillful dangermen at that time. They didn´t have the protection the likes of Messi and Modric enjoy today; brutal tackles were allowed. And the best players got injured, a lot. That was the environment in which Maradona played almost his whole career. Mostly in the country that considered defensive football an art form. And still at only 19, he is already mesmerising. Dynamic. Like a coiled spring. Floating over the turf, while others flounder. At one with the ball. Gliding past desperate defenders, at speed, with the ball seemingly glued to his magical left foot. Just poetry in motion.

@Freidlon7 Год назад

I vividly remember watching this with my Dad as a football mad 13 yr old. All these English defenders were my heroes and he completely shocked with his touch and twice ripping them apart with stunning speed and control. For some reason they left out of these highlights of how he won a penalty by dribbling past 3 of them in the second half or was that another game from earlier? Anyway his touch is the greatest ever, his affinity with the ball and for anyone here saying he kept losing the ball I’d say the defenders in those days were violent in their tackling.. this is Wembley, he was trying things. He’s still streets ahead in every respect and most of contributions are exceptional. I’ve watched Pele, Best and all the rest and they all lost the ball plenty. All I can say is for the time Maradona made our jaws drop as we’d never seen anything like it before. That run in the first half where he shaved the post was literally a total lightning bolt from out of this world. I still remember the feeling of seeing this all these years later and started to think I’d dreamed it… thanks so much for posting

yeah, he is more naturally talented than Pele and Messi. He was better than them in the big games. Only if Maradona was able to keep his focus at the right place and had longevity, then he would have been the GOAT. Pele and Messi have longevity and consistency, which strengthens their position in the GOAT debate. Maradona lacked these two things due to his off field issues.

@hsafootballworld1321 5 месяцев назад

@@VelhaGuardaTricolor I also regard Pele as the most complete player of all time since he had no weakness. But remember Pele was very professional and really looked after himself like Messi/CR7. While Maradona did not look after himself in the same way . Sometimes he would not train for days and train the day before the game. Besides that Maradona performed in tougher circumstances, like he never played in an extremely strong team like Pele did for Brazil and Messi did with Barcelona. I personally feel Maradona would have achieved more than Pele and Messi if he used his time wisely after he became a sensation in Napoli. But it's Maradona's own fault that he did not use the time wisely and he has only himself to blame. As things stands now, and if we take into consideration everything: achievements, completeness, natural talent and longevity. Then Pele would win the debate. Messi at number 2 and Maradona at 3. But i personally feel Maradona was blessed with more talent than Messi/Pele along with his ability to step up under pressure-

@VelhaGuardaTricolor 5 месяцев назад

@@hsafootballworld1321 Before we continue this very nice debate. I would like to remind us, we are splitting hairs when we talk Pelé and Maradona. Both geniuses in their own way. Both gods of the sport we love. I don't take into account who won the most. Because we are talking team sport. But I strongly disagree when you suggest Pelé looked after himself unlike Maradona, bc Pelé won the World Cup age 17. Also when you talk about performing under pressure, I don't see how Pelé can not be regarded as the most clutch player ever, maybe tied with other greats, but if winning the World Cup age 17 isn't dealing well with pressure, I don't know what is. Messi choked a lot for Argentina and Maradona lost a World Cup Final. So.... I don't see them being better under-pressure at all. Unless I am forgetting something. Pelé played in an ERA where bellow the NECK everything was SHIN. He had a stronger body than the other two but that is just about it.

@PabluchoViision Год назад

Diego Armando Maradona was on another plane altogether and from another galaxy. His skills had a fluidity that was magical, other-worldly. His charisma and command of the entire field of play were unmatched. His fighting spirit was not to be toyed with-Diego feared no one. Jorge Valdano called him a “Napoleonic” presence and I think that says it very well. All praise to Lionel Messi, who has justly scaled the heights of the sport, and whose career achievements (I have to recognize) have surpassed Diego’s. I admire Messi and have grown to love him as a player, a leader, and a person. But Diego remains, to my mind and in my heart, quite simply and beyond any serious debate, The Greatest.

Many years after this, he spoke about the move at 03:20, when he beat a few players then hit the ball with the outside of his foot and sent it wide by a very small margin. Had this same move in mind when he took again a few England players in 1986, then cut inside instead of hitting the ball, the end result being that a goal was scored( unlike here in the aforementioned move).

@@SantiagoBsAs23 Maradona no necesito los titulos de Messi para ser mejor que Messi. Messi no se drogo y no logro 3 copas del mundo como Pele o la brillantes y genialidad de Diego. Ademas, asi Maradona no se drogara no hubiese logrado los titulos de Messi porque Diego no jugo nunca con superestrellas del futbol mundial en los equipos que jugo. Messi fue una niño que debuto en el Barcelona junto a todos los cracks del planeta, en un club con todo el presupuesto del planeta para comprar a todos los mejores jugadores con los que jugo. Diego vino de abajo, jugando en Argentinos, Boca, Barcelona y Napoli donde no jugabas con estrellas al costado y en condiciones muy distintas a las actuales. Ni siquiera premiaban con Balones de Oro a los suramericanos. Asi que esa falacia para dar entender de que por la droga no logro mas titulos es falso, que importa, que interesa, no merece ser planteada incluso. Lo que hizo Diego entre 1976 y 1990 no lo igualo ni igualara Messi en su vida.

For me this is an example of why Maradona and Pele are the greatest footballers the world has ever seen , it's the speed of thought to try things that other footballers couldn't imagine, plus the sheer genius skill to make them happen, i've seen the footage of Maradona just shaving the post numerous times and still find it electrifying . Pele had the same instinct , the time he dummied the Uruguayan keeper , watch how he speeds up just before he doesn;t touch the ball , or took a shot from the half way line , he missed on both occasions but the temerity and self belief is still staggering 50 years on. We're fortunate to have the footage.

Remember watching him play live, Argentina v Israel, and the entire stadium sighed at his first touch which we all (all)thought was a bad miskick. The ball then span around a few Israeli midfielders and onto the feet on an Argentinian winger. We sighed again at our own naivety! Often wondered if Maradona himself laughed at that. In essence, he was beyond outrageously brilliant. He really did have eyes in the back of his head, both sides and in front as we do.

@nigefal Год назад

The amount of kicking Maradona got and he just got up and shrugged it off. I saw him in an interview where he said his brother gave out to him for not dribbling by the keeper and finishing that goal in this game. Where he clipped the side of the post after being clear. Maradona said he remember that for his dribbling goal in 1986.

That he should elude the GK and finish the goal in the first one. 6 years later in Mexico DM recognized that he rememberd his brother´s words at the finish of his famous goal, and instead of crossing the ball, he decided to elude the GK.

Esas características las fue puliendo Messi. Maradona le pegaba al balón a los 17 que a los 35. Maradona no tenía margen de mejora en lo futbolístico, sino en la maduración del jugador, como todos.

Comparing Maradona here with England's 'best' Keegan as lauded at the time shows the absolute gulf between the English game and the highest exponents of the beautiful game. If he had been Brazilian he would have been lauded here as the GOAT - which I happen to believe he was. An absolute talent and here humble enough to ride the fouls and physical aspects of the game without complaint. A unique talent who sadly was left to succumb to the darker aspects of fame, fortune and notoriety.
