Daring Diego Falls Foul Of Video Ref In Dramatic England Victory??
Special Report from Mexico '86
England 2-1 Argentina 1
A last gasp penalty from the boot of Gary Lineker gave England a dramatic win over Argentina, propelling Bobby Robson's men into a World Cup semi-final showdown with Belgium.
But it was a double handball by Diego Maradona that sealed Argentina's fate and left England thanking their lucky stars for video technology. The diminutive No10 was shown the red card for a second bookable offence after using his hand to block a header from goalkeeper Peter Shilton of all people. Maradona had used his hand to knock the ball past Shilton for a disallowed goal earlier in the game. Both incidents were caught on tape by the video ref.
