FIFA President Gianni Infantino stated in an interview that Diego Maradona’s "Goal of the Century" is the best goal in World Cup history. When asked about his most memorable World Cup goal, Infantino replied: "Maradona’s strike against England. No better goal exists—its genius, creativity and courage define football’s essence."

Scored in the 1986 World Cup quarter-finals, Maradona dribbled past multiple England players to score, coming minutes after his "Hand of God" goal, making the match an irreplaceable classic even 40 years later.
