Memories of Mexico '86

Mark Chapman is joined by the Guardian's Jonathan Wilson to look back and reminisce on the magic of Mexico '86. The pair reflect on everything from the size of the goals, to Denmark's iconic kit and how Alex Ferguson led a Scotland side marred by tragedy. Scotland striker Graeme Sharp speaks both about the death of their manager Jock Stein, and how Scotland were drawn into the tournament's first 'Group of Death'. Jono Vernon-Powell, an England fan who witnessed Maradona's iconic 'Hand of God' in person, joins the pod to discuss that unforgettable match. Mark speaks to commentator Barry Davies about his commentary of Maradona's iconic 'Goal of the Century' too. And finally, Argentinian football writer Marcela Mora y Araujo joins the pod to discuss the Argentinian perspective of Maradona and their tournament win.
