Description

Relive one of the most iconic tournaments in soccer history on this edition of Atlanta Soccer Flashback. From Mexico’s resilience as host after the 1985 earthquake to Diego Maradona’s unforgettable “Hand of God” and “Goal of the Century,” we revisit the drama of Argentina’s run through England, Belgium, and West Germany. We also explore the political backdrop of the Falklands War, the wild celebrations back in Buenos Aires, and how the failed U.S. bid for 1986 inspired the successful push to host in 1994.
