Match of the Century

June 22, 1986, Aztec Stadium in Mexico City. England's captain Peter Shilton and his Argentine counterpart Diego Armando Maradona shake hands before the World Cup quarter-final. A match begins that will enter sporting history - but far more than a place in the semi-finals was at stake on that pitch.

The goal of the century and the infamous "hand of God" are known to almost everyone. Yet the true story of this match is even more dramatic: the Falkland Islands War, national pride, political tension, and the personal destinies of players from both sides created a context that still sparks passionate debate.

Documentary filmmakers Juan Cabral and Santiago Franco return to this legendary encounter forty years later through the eyes of those who were on the pitch. Former rivals become friends, and an iconic football match transforms into a compelling story of rivalry, memory, and reconciliation. The film combines archival footage with personal recollections from players on both sides.
