The ball that was used to score Diego Maradona's ‘Hand of God’ goal against England at the 1986 World Cup has sold for £2 million at auction.
The Argentinian superstar scored two of the most famous goals in football history during the World Cup quarter final in Mexico City 36 years ago.
The white Adidas Azteca ball was first punched into the net past Peter Shilton in the 51st minute in one of the most controversial sporting moments of all time.
