Diego Armando Maradona was not just one of the best soccer players ever but also a persona who perfectly understood the sport. Many years after his retirement, the Argentinian legend travelled throughout all the world, visiting stadiums and knowing head coaches and players.

One of the scales in his travel was made at London, where he visited Tottenham Hotsputs. There, Maradona met Harry Kane, the English attacker who has been the top-scorer from the side during the past years. In that reunion, Diego recommended him a technique that it gave him results.

Maradona explained Kane how he had to kick the ball when he faced a one to one situation with the goalkeeper. Using that explanation, the attacker scored during this weekend the second goal from Tottenham against Arsenal on the derby of the city that his team won 2-0.

November 25 was the date that will be remembered for long, as Maradona died at the age of 60. The idol was hospitalized a couple of weeks before and, after returning to his house in Tigre, Buenos Aires, he died. His resources and techniques are still used, as Kane did against Arsenal.
