TOUCHED BY GOD - DIEGO MARADONA DANIEL ARNUCCI ...

'This is Diego Armando Maradona speaking  the man who scored two goals against England and one
of the few Argentines who knows how much the World Cup actually weighs'In June 1986  Diego
Maradona - one of the greatest and most controversial players in history - proudly hoisted the
World Cup above his head. Since then  Argentina's World Cup victory has become the stuff of
legend  and their quarterfinal with England  which featured arguably the best goal in history
(Maradona's 'Goal of the Century') and the worst (the notorious 'Hand of God')  is infamous.
Now  for the first time ever  Maradona tells his side of the story  detailing every game and
pulling no punches. But Argentina's victory came after months of struggle and discord within
the team and off the pitch  including the Argentine government's attempt to change the team's
coach  a lack of equipment that forced the players to buy their own uniforms  and an argument
that caused one the team's star players to quit on the eve of the tournament. Now  thirty years
after Argentina's magical victory  Maradona tells his side of the story  vividly recounting how
he led the team to win one of the greatest World Cup triumphs of all time.
