The World Cups THROUGH MY EYES. Part two, Mexico 1986

Welcome to Mexico 1986—the most romantic, dramatic, and epic World Cup in football history. A tournament that was never supposed to happen in Mexico, moving from a bankrupt Colombia only to face a devastating earthquake just months before the opening whistle. In this episode of Teletiam, we unlock the 1986 archive to show you how a nation rose from the literal ashes of disaster to host a festival of pure joy. But above all, 1986 was the year we witnessed how one single man could carry the weight of an entire nation's grief and transform it into football immortality: Diego Armando Maradona. We break down the legendary Quarter-Final between Argentina and England—a match that was far more than a game. It was a fierce geopolitical war fought on grass, a direct response to the blood spilled in the Falklands War four years prior. Witness the four minutes that divided football history forever: from the defiance of the "Hand of God" to the breathtaking art of the "Goal of the Century."
