Maradona's historic football sold for $3.3 million

The ball used by Argentine football legend Diego Maradona to score his famous handball goal against England in the 1986 World Cup was sold at a public auction for $3.4 million (approximately £2.5 million).

This price was lower than estimates that had predicted its value could reach $10 million (£7.3 million).

Thus, according to the British Telegraph, the ball failed to break the record set by the shirt Maradona wore in the same match, which sold four years ago for £7.1 million.
