Because the noise in replies when the perception is you're comparing 2 greats makes debate pointless.
The debate was about the comparative conditions both played in, and what that means more than anything and that got lost in the replies.
Your video proves what that context is though, so thank you!
@StanCollymore@MerriamWebster Stan why did you delete that brilliant post about Maradona? You nailed it!!! Anyways here is Maradona being fouled in 1986 World Cup final. Just look what Germany did to him and he still won! https://t.co/dU83nzk20P
We've allowed our sport's rules to be so bastardised and idiotised ( stick that in your dictionary @MerriamWebster) that every football illiterate on the planet can argue with authority that any contact is a legitimate foul.
In what is literally a contact sport.
It's a fact.
Players from every corner of the world play right the way up and down the pyramid.
We have better supported National League teams than some of your Premier League.
Don't he salty pal, you've still got your Argentina top to wear for another day.
We'll play whoever we play.
But we're here.
And when we're not, we'll go back to supporting clubs in a pyramid the envy of the world.
Then we'll qualify for the Euros.
Then we'll qualify for Spain 2030.
What about you?
Egypt's disallowed goal was completely against how this tournament has been refereed.
You can't have a light touch where you don't give fouls for minimal contact and then rule out a goal through VAR for a very minimal hold of the shirt.

UEFA issues strong condemnation of FIFA over its decision to lift Balogun suspension for USA.
UEFA by far the most powerful regional body in world football and can make life very difficult indeed for the FIFA chief.
Champions League, Premier League, LA Liga in particular, global cash cows for the sport that even American sponsorship involvement can't get near.
