Life Is Life

[Est1872]

Think I first saw that on here about 15 years ago!

Pure class.

 

[Johnny Yen]

One of my favourite ever Maradona clips.

 

[Beer Belly Loyal]

That's incredible how that ball is owned.

 

[Wazza]

Did it at Ajax tonight I think.

 

[macallan]

Genius

 

[Stella_Bear]

That's about 800 keepie uppies in that clip.
The GOAT.

[grascots]

That is pure brilliance, got to be the best player ever.

 

[Alan1965]

Just brilliant.

 

[Jelle1880]

Shoes not tied either, just doing what he does best

 

[DelPiero]

A genuine legend.

We’ll never see anyone like him again.

 

[Corkinator]

Put that on my Facebook earlier! Classic!

 

[subversive_bear]

This is something I watch every couple of months, sometimes even more. Incredibly poignant now.

 

[Amity75]

I've probably watched that fifty times in the last few years. What a guy. And cocaine is a hell of a drug.

 

[Johnny Yen]

It seems absolutely ridiculous and a tad embarrassing but I genuinely feel a bit emotional at Maradona passing away, my all time favourite non Gers player, an incredible footballer, a flawed genius.

 

[brummiebear]

That is just sheer genius

 

[Angus Og]

That would bring a tear to a glass eye.
Genius of a man.

 

[Biniaro11]

For me the greatest football ever to walk the planet. Born two years before me, I was brought up watching him, a genius, not perfect but an utterly incredible footballer.

 

[bornabluenose]

Maestro at work.

 

[amabluestar]

Had the privilege of watching him at Hampden in 1979.
Outstanding talent.

 

[Balogun1]

A genuine legend.

We’ll never see anyone like him again.

The ultimate pibe.

 

[Sir Sidney Ruff Diamond]

Effortless.

 

[ekbear]

Was it Stefan Reuter that said the Bayern players stopped and watched him during that warm up?

 

[Sticky Fingers]

That’s just filthy, that skill, control. I’ve watched that umpteen times I guess like most folk, and I’m still in awe watching it.

Incredible footballer, person, genius.

 

[Zwingli'sSausages]

sublime

 

[Gazb1962]

He and Pele were better than all the rest, Maradona shades it for the GOAT.

 

[TQ3]

Wait til he ties his laces, then you know he means it!

 

[Stella_Bear]

Had the privilege of watching him at Hampden in 1979.
Outstanding talent.

My old man saw him back then also, he was supposed to play in the game that Stewart McKimmie scored the winning goal about 30 years ago, but he never turned up, gutted at the time, I was only 16.

 

[ekbear]

Had the privilege of watching him at Hampden in 1979.
Outstanding talent.

Was absolutely gutted I never got to see him at Hampden in 1990.

 

[Tractionman55]

Just brilliant.

 

[Strike up the drum]

If there was the same TV, Social media exposure when he played as there is now No one would even try and argue that this wee nut case of a man was the greatest player ever to entertain the football world

 

[Realger34]

Footballing genius.

 

[dbear]

Boots untied and completely out his tits, the documentary about his life from this period was fascinating.

 

[Hurricane Run]

Imo the greatest natural talent of all time, I dont think he ever actually fulfilled it which says it all. If he had been protected from his demons, I dont even think it would be a question who the greatest ever was. All the skill of Messi, but quicker and stronger. Played in the most physical league in the world, he was literally booted up and down the pitch every time he played. Yet he was still unplayable at times.

 

[scobie1873]

Cool as f-ck.

 

[o7o]

That's incredible how that ball is owned.

Very one footed lol

 

[Ronnietheranger]

Had the privilege of watching him at Hampden in 1979.
Outstanding talent.

Me too, two goals as an 18 year old that day A joy to watch and what a team they were.

 

[vinnie]

Genius.

 

[Beege]

Wasn't he the Coca-Cola boy who entertained the crowd at the the 78 world Cup final with his keepie-up

 

[PredaKing]

Looks not to have a care in the world, a boy and his football.

 

[Muzza]

Absolutely love watching this. Never gets old. RIP Diego.

 

[Route 55]

Utter filth some of the moves. Legend.

 

[Bearskin]

One of the mysteries of my formative years listening to the song on juke boxes outside social clubs with a can of coke and packet of crisps
Is the song called Life is Life or Live is Life??
I see our leader may have fallen in to the trap as well

 

[LarkfiedLoyalNS]

Iconic, what a man, what a legend.

 

[giogaddi]

He could literally do anything with a football.

 

[Captain_Buns]

Sensational

 

[jierobinson92]

The greatest

 

[Ulsterscot]

Is there any background to the clip?

Is the clip legit?

Watched it loads of times but was it a friendly?

Also lots of fans in to watch a warm up?

Is the music edited it?

 

[The Royal Standard]

He wasn’t bad , was he ?
