Diego Maradona's iconic goal against Greece in the 1994 World Cup marked a pivotal moment, being both a highlight and the last of his international career. Following a doping scandal after a match with Nigeria, Maradona was banned and did not play for Argentina again, severely impacting the team's performance. Argentina, once favorites after their 1986 triumph, faltered without their star player, losing to Bulgaria and Romania in subsequent matches. The depth of regret over Maradona's absence is echoed by teammate Roberto Sensini, who believes they could have won the tournament with him.
Maradona was just different from normal people. He could do everything - things that we couldn't even imagine. He will always have his place in history.
I think we might have won the 1994 World Cup had he not been banned. It was another sensational side... the regret is perhaps even greater.
