@Kenyans It's like a norm in Kenya that every election cycle starts with unity talks and ends with betrayal accusations. The first real concern for the opposition should not be strategy but if they can survive their own internal power struggles until 2027.

The "Hand of God" and Goal of the Century (1986) is easily the most iconic and controversial moment in sports history.
On this exact day in 1986, Argentine legend Diego Maradona completely took over the World Cup quarter-final against England.
With the game tied 0-0 in the 51st minute, Maradona chased a deflected ball into the box, jumped against England's keeper Peter Shilton, and used his left hand to punch the ball into the net. The referee missed it completely, and the goal stood despite frantic protests.
Right after the match, Maradona dropped the ultimate quote, saying it was scored "a little with the head of Maradona and a little with the hand of God." He didn't explicitly admit to using his hand until 2005 on his TV show.
But this match wasn't just about a controversial handball. It was played only 4 years after the Falklands War, making the victory feel like a huge symbolic reclamation of national pride for Argentina. Plus, just 4 minutes after the handball, Maradona dribbled past 5 English defenders from his own half to score the "Goal of the Century" widely considered the greatest goal ever.
The legacy is still insane today. In 2022, the jersey he wore sold at auction for a staggering £7.1 million ($9.3 million), and the match ball fetched another £2 million.
