Diego Maradona’s legendary jersey in which he scored his infamous “Hand of God” goal against England in 1986 will be on display in Qatar during the World Cup.

The shirt, which an unnamed buyer bought for $9.3 million at an auction five months ago, has been loaned to the Qatar Sports Museum and will be on display there until 1 April.

The match is considered one of the most talked about in football history and has added to the legend status of Maradona, who died of a heart attack in November 2020 at the age of 60.

Maradona wore the number 10 jersey when he scored both goals in a 2-1 World Cup quarter-final win over England at Mexico City’s Azteca Stadium in 1968. Controversial is the first, which Maradona later said he scored “a bit with his head and a bit with the hand of God”.

For the second goal, he managed a breathtaking solo run past five England defenders and goalkeeper Peter Shilton Shilton. A goal that was voted “Goal of the Century” in a FIFA poll in 2002.

The Maradona jersey is on display at the “World of Football” exhibition along with a ball used in the first World Cup finals in 1930. Exhibits also include the first written representation of the rules of football and one of two bronze busts of Pele’s right foot.
