the people in columbia is not nice how come to kill a man because off a error in foot ball i do not like this country and this people desde 1994 hasta nunca
Escobar sacrificed his life for the US player right of him who would inevitable hit the pass for a score. Would they had sent an 'Alberto the Shadow' to do the job? If every athletic, who fight for his country, get paid by his country in such way, then the days of sport as I have them in memories, are counted.
fuck columbia for killing off your best players. you don't deserve your women…well…maybe you do. cursed be colombia…land of thugs.
The comment section of this video is disgraceful. So much hatred and vitriol.
why is everyone arguing its only a fucking game. He didn't deserve to die for it !
Descance en paz. Un errror fatal que lo costo la vida.
He said the coach took Columbia to the World Cup finals in 1994, when the final in 1994 was Italia vs Brasil, when R.Baggio missed the penalty!
Wow, that's almost 4000 murders a year in Medellin. Makes Detroit seem like Oz
where's the documentary from?
He should have ask for Asylum in the United States.
sad, because he really looked like a normal down to earth guy.
Una tristeza a donde llega la gente sin corazon que descanses en paz Andres Escobar. Que Dios te tenga en su santa gloria Que Dios bendiga a nuestro mundo y que toda la gente mala sea buena
He didn't deserve to die from that. His killer wouldn't have done any better
do sad
this is so stupid
Inmortal #2 pte vamos verde por la libertadores con el corazón de Andrés
According to the show Narcos, he was killed by some drug traffickers linked to the cartels is this true?
Yea let's lay down some death threats before the game….that always get the boys pepped up. No wonder mistakes were made under that kind of pressure.
es un dia inolvidable recuerdo su autogol como si fuera ayer descansa en paz andre que injustica
escobar seemed to always look worried and nervous
Narcos
de fondo el ratón cheo feliciano
hermoso ver esos vídeos del verde o de la selección de esa época de los 90
That's like if Hasslebaink playing for Chelsea got murdered by a Chelsea hooligan for scoring an own goal at Newcastle in 2002-03. Didn't happen of course but that wud be a Premier League version of Escobar's fate!
Such a shame Escobar was so badly tarnished by this play. He was a great footballer who made a mistake while trying to defend against a very possible US goal. The reality is that USA may very well have scored anyway had he not touched the ball (see the US player open beyond Escobar during the cross pass – but who knows). I originally recorded this game on my VCR. It was not until after Escobar's murder that I went back and reviewed the tape. I must have rewound it a million times. Even now, after seeing this Youtube version, I'm still saddened by his pale face after that goal. And after seeing it again and again, I think he must have known what was waiting for him when he got home. Even more sad, are some of the comments I see here, and how this game (this play) can still cause such political and social divisiveness so many years later. Football (or any sport) should never be worth the price Andres Escobar paid…
This happened in the 90s, now Colombia is different. more respect please
Esas caras de preocupacion y de angustia, no eran de derrota sin embargo, algo no andaba nada bien, y peor a todos se les paso por alto.
Wow the comment section… I can't even.. Really funny how people can be so brave to curse and bad mouthing behind the screen but if talk face to face? I doubt it. Anyway RIP Escobar what a tragedy hope it will never happen again
RIP

never happened
0:23 There were 12 “GOAL”s shouted by the commentator. And 12 bullets were shot to him (according to his girlfriend)
RIP Andrés Escobar??
Rene Higuita was probably even more luckier in 1990 that obviously the drug lords hadn't bet on Colombia v Cameroon , our he definitely would have had it after his horrible mistake .
