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. On the pitch that day, far more than a place in the semi-finals was at stake.

While the goal of the century and the infamous "Hand of God" are known to almost everyone, the true story of this match is even more dramatic. The Falkland Islands War, national pride, political tension, and the personal fates of the players created the backdrop for a match that still sparks passionate debate today.

Directors 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 fascinating story about rivalry, memory, and reconciliation. Archive footage interweaves with personal recollections from players on both sides.
