Maradona may not have as good statistics as Pele in terms of goals, but what makes him great is the entertainment factor of his football, Maradona had amazing technique, he had a great first touch, could dribble like no other, and was a great finisher.
Pele played almost exclusively in the Brazilian league, and although this was one of the best at the time it was not known for having great defences.
Maradona on the other hand played in Argentina, Spain, and Italy, and succeeded against all different types of football.
The thing that most sets them apart is that Maradona won the World Cup almost single-handedly, scoring some of the greatest and most memorable goals in football history.
