One of the best goals in the history of soccer.
This is what we call a "Work of Art”.
His name is Lionel Messi he’s 20 years old and he is plays for Barcelona my favorite team (Yoohoo). The funny thing is that Maradona did almost the same play 20 year ago in the world cup playing against England (Sorry Kae), they are both Argentineans.
Enjoy the play ladies and gentlemen’s.

- I think this one from messi is sligtly more well performed than Maradona's -- the only thing is that he made that play in the world cup, so there was more pressure , but yeah , los dos goles son muy parecidos.. -

Here another that shows the comparison between Maradona and Messi’s goal.

Curious thing is that both players touch the ball 13 times before they scored.
