translated from Spanish: It is the 42 years since Diego Maradona’s first goal in the Argentine National Team

This Wednesday marks the 42nd anniversary of the memorable match between the Argentina national team and Scotland played on June 2, 1979 in Glasgow, where Diego Armando Maradona scored his first goal in the blue and white shirt. That day, the coach César Luis Menotti started the Diez, who with his 18 years already deployed all his hierarchy and, in addition to converting a goal, assisted Leopoldo Jacinto Luque in one of his two goals that sealed the Argentine victory by 3 to 1.In 2019, when it was 40 years since that goal , the Diego had remembered it with a special post on his social networks.
“They had a great team, they were coming off a 3-2 win over the Netherlands in the World Cup. The captain was Kenny Dalglish, a phenomenon. We won 3-1, with 2 goals from Luque and one of mine. I threatened to throw the center, and I put it between the stick and the goalkeeper Wood, “recalled in the post the world champion in Mexico 1986.After the game, Maradona changed the shirt with Graham, who played with the number 11, and was honored along with the rest of the Argentine players with a corridor that made the Scottish footballers to dismiss them with applause. Finally, Pelusa said it was difficult to get away from her family to participate in that tour: “I’ve never been so long away from my old ones. I remember paying a fortune in phone calls to Buenos Aires, to talk to my mom, dad and my brothers.”
