In 1986, when Maradona lifted the World Cup at the Azteca Stadium in Mexico, his opponents were the Germans, though from the west side of the Berlin Wall. And in 1990, when he lost the trophy in a veil of tears and a lot of humiliation because of his side’s poor, scrappy game, Maradona’s opponents again were the Germans. What he won from the Germans, Maradona lost to them four years later. The plot is perfect. Throw at Messi the challenge of repeating what Maradona achieved and settle the ‘who is better’ debate once and for all. Messi has won almost everything he has touched. It is said often that once he reaches a final, he always ensures that his side lift the trophy.
