Maradona's handball sells for 3.3M
The ball with which Argentine football legend Diego Maradona scored his historic goal against England in the 1986 World Cup was sold for $3.3 million at an American auction, falling short of the estimated value of around $10 million. This ball witnessed two famous goals, one by Maradona’s hand, dubbed the "Goal of the Century," and the other when he outran five players before scoring. The ball was kept by Tunisian referee Ali Ben Nasser for over three decades before being sold in 2022 for approximately $2.37 million. It is worth noting that Maradona's jersey from the same match was previously sold at auction for £7.1 million.
