With the countdown underway toward 2026 World Cup, the World Cup atmosphere is starting to gain prominence on the global stage. In that context, Gianni Infantino allowed himself a break in his hectic schedule as president of FIFA to interact with fans through social media and made a statement that strongly resonated in Argentina.

In that regard, a user on Instagram asked him:"What is your favorite goal from all the World Cups?" He didn't hesitate. The official pointed to Diego Maradona's second goal against England as the best in the history of the World Cup. The post, shared on his personal account and recorded inside a stadium, was accompanied by the video of that unforgettable play in the 1986 Mexico quarterfinals, with the historic commentary by Víctor Hugo Morales.

"Maradona's second against England. I couldn't have scored a more beautiful goal," Infantino stated, surrendering to the masterpiece by Pelusa in Argentina's 2-1 victory at Estadio Azteca.

Far from stopping at that choice alone, the head of the international body deepened his admiration for the unforgettable 52-meter (170.6-foot) run that forever marked the history of soccer." Some goals are simply unforgettable. A moment of genius, creativity, and courage that defined what soccer is all about. A goal that couldn't have been more beautiful," he concluded.
