Diego Maradona, one of football’s greatest-ever players, has died aged 60.

The 1986 World Cup winner had surgery to remove a blood clot on the brain earlier this month. The Argentine Football Association confirmed he had died this afternoon.

“The Argentine Football Association, through its president Claudio Tapia, expresses its deepest sorrow for the death of our legend, Diego Armando Maradona. You will always be in our hearts,” they said.

Another of football’s greats, Pele, has led the tributes to: “Certainly, one day we’ll kick a ball together in the sky above.” Follow latest updates and reaction here.

Peter Reid remembers the 1986 World Cup quarter-final

Recalling the quarter-final match in Guadalajara, Reid said: “We opted not to man-mark him, thank God I wasn’t given that job.

“Belgium tried it in the semi-final with Eric Gerets, who was a great player, and he still tore them apart.

“He was one of those players, whatever way you went about, if he was playing well on the day he was very, very difficult to stop.

“We felt a bit cheated with the first (goal) but the second was magnificent. They were dancing in the tunnel, it really went off and I think Terry Butcher steamed into them. It was quite lively afterwards to be honest.”

Asked about his involvement in the second goal, Reid said: “With his balance and his strength he just went through us. It was just one of those things you can’t stop.

“I get asked ‘why didn’t you bring him down?’ and rest assured if I could have got there….I wake up in a cold sweat still thinking about it, and I still can’t get there.”
