@FootynewsAli Bin Nasser, the Tunisian referee who kept the ball from Mexico 1986, is putting it up for auction. This is the same ball Diego Armando Maradona used to score the 'Hand of God' and the 'Goal of the Century.' Heritage Auctions in Texas will handle the sale, with bidding starting at $2.5 million and potentially reaching $10 million. An absolute relic of football history.
