Statue for Maradona

Maradona

In the Boca Juniors museum in Buenos Aires a 3-meter statue of bronze and cement will stand in honor of Argentinean soccer legend Diego Maradona. The cost of the statue will be on the burden of "fans" from all around the world. The idea to build the 300KG statue came from four friends who launched a website to campaign for the statue. Now they've done it.

Maradona is considered to be one of the best football players of all time especially since he scored his famous handball goal against England in the Mexico world cup of 1986 which lead Argentina to win the cup that year.

I wonder if the statue has a golden hand or something like that.
