In the subsequent matches, Maradona continued to stand out with his skill and vision of the game. In the quarterfinals against Belgium, he scored two more goals with impressive individual plays. Then, in the semifinal against Germany, he made a magical assist to Jorge Burruchaga for the winning goal.
In the final against the Germans, Maradona was key in Argentina's victory, although he did not score in that match. With his leadership and brilliance in every play, he led his team to the world champion title. This achievement not only meant the second star on the AFA shield but also established Maradona as one of the greatest players of all time.
