[HIGHLIGHTS] “It was with the shoulder”: 34 years later, Vata still denies having scored with his hand against OM with Benfica

Vata scored the controversial goal in the Champions League semi-final second leg against Marseille. 34 years later, the Angolan still disputes the irregularity of his goal.

“It's been 34 years and I still say the same thing. If it had been with my hand, why would I have lied? », says Vata to the Portuguese sports daily A BOLA. ‘It's a goal that will go down in Benfica’s history. A lot of people say it was with the hand, but the referee himself never said it was, and I also say it wasn't with the hands, it was the shoulder, » he adds.
