The football world cup is going to start in a few days. The whole world has already started shaking with football fever. Many ‍world-renowned teams will fight for football supremacy in Qatar. But what is exceptional is that the former World Cup-winning football player of Argentina, Diego Maradona, will be seen in Qatar World Cup.

But not on the field, Maradona will be seen differently. The late Maradona will be present in the World Cup. The Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum will launch an exhibition during the World Cup. Where Maradona’s ‘Hand of God’ famous jersey will be shown. The jersey, which set a record in the sport’s history ($8.93 million), will be on display until April 1.

In the 1986 World Cup, Maradona’s Argentina defeated England in the quarter-final wearing that jersey. In that match, Maradona scored ‘with his hand’ in 6 minutes of the second half. Which is known as the ‘Hand of God. When Argentina won the World Cup in that World Cup, the significance of Maradona’s goal increased.

Of course, the jersey that has been the subject of so much discussion and controversy, the Argentinian legend exchanged the jersey with English midfielder Steve Hodge after the quarter-final match. Later, since 2002, that jersey has been displayed in the National Museum of England. Which was auctioned five months ago. This jersey will be exhibited at the World Cup in Qatar.
