Diego Maradona memorabilia and Heritage Auctions
Saturday
The ball Diego Maradona used for both his Hand of God goal and Goal of the Century against England at the 1986 World Cup has sold for $3.35m at Heritage Auctions, well below the auction house’s $10m estimate.
The same Adidas Azteca ball previously sold for $2.37m in 2022 and failed to meet its reserve in another auction a year later. Its latest sale reflects renewed World Cup-era collector interest while remaining below football memorabilia’s biggest record prices.
