Diego Maradona joined Pablo Aimar and some Korean football legends in Suwon as part of an event to launch the FIFA U-20 World Cup, due to take place in South Korea later this year.

The Argentine legend took part in a five-a-side match to promote the tournament, and even recreated some of the iconic moments of his career.

He made sure to reenact the “Hand of God” goal he scored against England in 1986, punching the ball into the net on Tuesday, although he didn’t attempt the other famous goal from that match, when he dribbled past five players to score.

Maradona also replicated his infamous wild-eyed goal celebration from the 1994 World Cup.

The FIFA U-20 World Cup will begin on May 20, with the final set for June 11.
