There are many complex men, but this is the great Diego Maradona - perhaps the most skilled footballer ever to grace the world stage. It was one of my earliest photographs good enough for others to see and I will always cherish it. I took it in Mexico City in 1986 - a city and a year closely associated with Maradona. It was a World Cup that will always be remembered and remembered because of him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe dominated his stage with a zest and skill level that perhaps only his fellow Argentinian Lionel Messi has ever matched. I feel very fortunate to have photographed both sporting icons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1986 there was no autofocus and the cameraman had to move the focus manually - not an easy trick in such moments. But my position in this group game against Bulgaria was a stroke of luck and I took the opportunity. It was the start of a long journey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaradona was so dominant in all his matches that my camera struggled to focus on any other player. Theirs were mere cameo roles against the main act.","brand":"David Yarrow","offers":[{"title":"102 x 81 cm (image size) | 140 x 119 cm (framed size)","offer_id":44027277475927,"sku":"DY-PH-Mexico City 1986 (Colour)-102 x 81 cm (image size) | 140 x 119 cm (framed size)-AR-SI-N\/A","price":20000.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/petragut.com\/de\/products\/david-yarrow-mexico-city-1986-colour","provider":"Petra Gut Contemporary AG","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
