- JERRY LAWTON , MATT DUNN

EX-ENGLAND stars sunk by Maradona's "Hand of God" goal stuck the boot into Argentina after they lost to Saudi Arabia.

Former Three Lions captain Terry Butcher, 63, below, admitted watching their agony, after one of the biggest shocks in World Cup history, was "a nice feeling" He said it had made him feel "just a little bit better" about being KO'd by Diego's handball goal at the 1986 World Cup.

"It is great to see Argentina struggle," he gloated. "It certainly helped me put 1986 into the past. It would have been even better if Saudi Arabia cheated for their winner." 18 Peter Keeper Shilton, 73, who was beaten to the ball by Maradona's fist in the quarter-final in Mexico, could hardly wait to praise the Arabian knights for a "great job".
