The goalkeeper that day was Peter Shilton. After the game he called Maradona a cheat. After the game the worlds press called Maradona a cheat.
His response was that it was the "hand of God".
That's not an admission.
His statement incensed the English with it's arrogance.

Your right about the analogy though mate.
Incidentally, the bar argument was about sovereignty of the Falklands. An issue raised by them and not me.
Mexico are playing well and this match is awesome.
Don't be surprised if it's settled by a classic piece of Argie chicanery though.
