When was the last time Argentina won the World Cup?
The last time Argentina won the World Cup was in 1986 when they defeated West Germany by a score of 3-2. The club’s championship run that year is most remembered for the controversial “Hand of God goal” scored by Argentina’s captain, Diego Maradona, in the quarterfinals against England. Maradona netted five goals in that year’s tournament and won the Golden Ball, the award given to the player with the best performance.
