Diego Maradona is arguably one of the greatest players the world has seen. Though he already hung up his playing boots years ago, his name still reigns supreme in the football world, and his work is still recognized as revolutionary. The goal that gets him on the list, is in a match between his countryside Argentina, and formidable English side. The subject goal came just four minutes after he had scored the highly controversial 'Hand of God' goal. He picked up the ball in his own half, then delightfully span past two English players.

He then went ahead to pull off an impressive spin into the English playing half. Though Terry Butcher and Peter Shilton tried to stop him, the little Argentinian man was simply unstoppable. The goal went ahead to be termed as one of the greatest goals of the century. Very few players can be able to pull off a masterful run like that, past defenders, at record-shattering speeds, and still, manage to score one of the most beautiful goals. Maradona, was indeed, the greatest player of his time, and one of the all-time greats.
