The Scottish ballboy with a Maradona memory for life

Adam Brown has a pretty special story when it comes to Diego Maradona, having been lifted up by the hands of God whilst he was watching the Argentina team train in 2008.

Brown was a 13-year-old playing at Celtic when he and his teammates were ball-boys for Scotland's match against Argentina - who were then managed by Maradona.

Brown tells Chris Latchem about the time Diego treated him as a hero after helping the World Cup winner find something very valuable.
