Fantasista 2013 is a celebration of contemporary football (soccer) art inspired by the rapid rise of the ‘football artist’ in the digital age.

This clip shows the second goal that Diego Armando Maradona scored against England on their run to win the 1986 World Cup title. This goal is usually considered among the best goals ever scored.
