Maradona would have gone down in history as the greatest footballer ever if he had the same professionalism as Messi/Ronaldo. The most amazing fact about the two latter and perhaps best footballers ever is their determination and long time commitment to a game where many seem to rest on their laurels for too long. Maradona at his peak had it all and he played in a time where horrible tackles from behind weren´t punished as they are today, unfortunately he lacked the stamina and will to see his talent prevail throughout the ages.

[@elsapucai]

Italia 1990 is widely remembered as the most badly played world cup. Few goals, much incidents and excessive defensive playing in general.

[@turbowmore]

That's true, But don't forget that Germany was an exception in that point. Think about their brilliant 4-1 victory against Yugoslavia or the match against the Netherlands, which was the best in the whole tournament.

[@freedomfighters9188]

Germany actually played worse as the tournament went further..Italy where the best team as in terms of consistency

[@turbowmore]

That's true, Germany did not play that easy later in tournament as they did in the group stage or against Netherlands. But still they deserved to win the world cup, because no other team that played directly against them was better than them. The only match that was really close was the semi final against England, so if Germany would have lost that, nobody could complain about that. But Argentina were by far not playing on the same level as Germany.

[@freedomfighters9188]

Very true they where better offensively than any other team in the first round..and Italy where the best defensive team in that World Cup but I still think Germany got lucky that Argentina beat Italy on.penalties..to play Italy in Rome in that type of magnitide especially a Final..it would be very hard for Germany to beat Italy infront of the huge home crowd with all the support..remember italy never lossed in Rome during the tournament and never allowed a goal..it was only when the semi final shifted to Naples is when Italy lossed on penalties..Rome was a completely different atmosphere for the italians..we very strong in Rome..compared to playing the only one game away in Naples

alex kanyima Maradona was a bit less dominant in Mexico? Uh... yeah. Alright. Go and do some research before you respond. He wasn't dominant at all in Italia '90- aside from his assist to Caniggia and a few other things he did in that tournament, he was really very ineffective at that WC.
