Young Mo Who: Hand Of God

The Story

Young Mo Who; the Hand of God

The English and South Americans is like oil and water; it is hard to blend. The Falkland war in 1982, Suarez’s handball in 2010, and Maradonna’s famous “hand of God”-goal in 1986. Diego Maradonna, 1,65m, beat goalkeeper Peter Shilton (1,83m) by using his hand to kick the ball in the net. The referee did not see. Of course, after this, he made one of the most iconic solos ever, and won the World Cup for Argentina shortly after.
Peter Shilton never forgave him as Diego never apologized. Peter did not attend the premiere of the documentary about Maradonna as he had something more important to do (playing darts).

Diego is a Friend of Poeha

Diego is a friend of Poeha. He wears our shirts. Moreover he fits our profile. See this quote from the Guardian: “What Maradona could do with a ball was proof if any were needed that football at its best is an art form. His entire being, body and mind, could do with a ball what the greatest composers in history have done with musical notes, the most notable artists with a brush and some paint, the best writers with words, pen and paper.”

Jan Mulder on Maradonna

However, Jan Mulder  is not always that enthousiastic about Diego. The hand of God is perhaps a little exaggerated. Especially when Jan lists the players Diego passed when scoring his 2nd goal against England in 1986: 1. a butcher from North London, 2. a garbage collector from Hull, 3. a fan from Leicester, 4. a tourist from Huddersfield, 4. a leftover pylon from yesterday’s training. Nevertheless,as Jan will acknowledge, the dribbles of Maradonna were the greatest! Or is Messi better?
