Against Paraguay, Gary Lineker's first goal was a tap in from two yards out after Steve Hodge had passed to him from the byline inside the penalty area. Ten minutes into the second half Terry Butcher's shot from the edge of the penalty area came off the goalkeeper and Peter Beardsley was first to react to score from close range. England's third goal was the best of the three - a clever pass from Glen Hoddle in midfield found Gary A Stevens running into the right hand side of the penalty area - he cut the ball across to an unmarked Gary Lineker who scored to the goalkeepers right.

Maradona handles the ball - it then goes over Shilton's head and into the net (1-0)

After 51 minutes of the match with Argentina, Steve Hodge tried to clear a ball to safety but mishit it up into the air - the England goalkeeper Peter Shilton went for the catch and would have got there first but Maradona led with his arm - he realised Shilton would get there first so kept his arm up on the jump and hit the ball into the net with it - in one of the worst decisions at the World Cup, the referee, Ali Bennaceur from Tunisia, gave the goal - Maradona would later say it had been scored by the "hand of god"! It was Ali Bennaceur's first and last World Cup game as a referee.

After 54 minutes, Maradona scored again but this time with one of the World Cup's great goals - he got the ball in his own half and ran past England player after England player - inside the England penalty box Butcher tried to take him down as he got past Shilton but he shot to make it 2-0 to Argentina - John Barnes came on and after 80 minutes he crossed from the left wing to Lineker who scored with a header to make it 2-1 - Lineker had a good chance to make it 2-2 late on but could not convert it.
 

Maradona with the World Cup
 

In the semi finals West Germany  beat France 2-0 while Argentina beat Belgium 2-0. France beat Belgium 4-2 after extra time in the 3rd place play off and Argentina beat West Germany 3-2 in the final.  Brown (22 mins) and Valdano (55 mins) gave Argentina a 2-0 lead but Rummenigge (73 mins) and Voller (81 mins) pulled it back to 2-2, only for Burruchaga to score for Argentina after 83 minutes. The man of the tournament, Diego Maradona had a great game.
