A great tribute to him and the people who love him. Life doesn’t end here what a quote.

I remember watching that match as a child, the way we all reacted with disbelief. And then a few days later on the radio when they announced he'd been shot. I agree with what they said: football is just a game. It's a beautiful game, but it's not a matter of life and death.

The only Escobar I feel proud as Colombian 😢🇨🇴

You're still a hero in Colombia Andres. It's a shame that some drug dealer got egoistic just because you stood up for yourself against his insults. No one in their right mind would shoot you because of the own goal. We loved you before and we still love you to this day.

A powerful message from a player loved by millions

I think it would be fitting to also include some of the beautiful moments he and his team had, they played some amazing football and scored some incredible (team)goals

Well done FIFATV

It’s been 24 years and it’s still a major stain in our history. I live in New York and I get the same comments to these day... “ I hope they don’t kill the guy who missed the penalty” .... “ that guy who got the red card against Japan is dead as soon as he’s back” That was a dark time in our Colombian history and I accept the fact that as a nation there’s still some room for improvement but stuff like what happened to Andres Escobar it’s becoming rare. We all love our players , we cheer for them no matter what.

“Life goes on, life doesn’t end here.”

The same people who talked shit about Escobar for the own goal, were probably the same people pretending to be sad when he was killed.

He is a hero for Colombia. I will remember him in my heart. May he rest in peace

Andres Escobar.....👏

Remembering this gentleman in 2018!

RIP Andrés Escobar Saldarriaga "the gentleman of soccer" forever in ♥️♥️♥️.

Muy lindo, gracias por el homenaje a Andres

Pónganlo en fifa como icono en su honor era un jugadoraso escobar😞

The man that killed him only served 11 years in prison. Can you imagine that? Spending 11 years in prison for killing someone? That's nothing.

Eterno Andrés... ❤❤

I remember hearing this on the news as a 15 year old. Extremely sad day for world football

Descance en paz el caballero

Muchas gracias por el video ❤️Colombia

They killed escobar but the rest of the team was untouched thats hard to believe since the losses they had should be on the team. RIP Escobar

just disgraceful.Only an own goal & you took someone's life?

descansa en paz Andres escobar ... me acuerdo tenia 8 años

3 sad and heartbreaking events/things in that world cup: -the assassination of escobar. -maradona's expulsion of the tournament -roberto baggio's missed penalty

They had Valderrama, Asprilla, Freddy Rincón, real class players.

Sin duda el peor capítulo de la historia del deporte colombiano. Por eso hay que tomarse con mesura los favoritismos. Descansa en paz Andrés, siempre te recordamos crack.

I was at the game he scored the own goal at in 94 at the Rose Bowl against the USA and the one against Romania. I was just a kid and it was crazy to me to hear that he was killed when he got home. So senseless.

Never forgotten Escobar, always in football fans minds. John from Scotland UK.

Great sportsman, God bless his sole. He was a real gentleman

Really touching tribute. Nice 2018 still remembered like it was yesterday.

Had he been alive today.....he would've been a manager of some club or even the national team :(

Muy, muy triste - Recordare a este joven, Andres Escobar, por toda mi vida hasta siempre.

👏👏👏for a legend

Columbia got angry at the wrong Escobar.....

Andres escobar you're a great player.. I was sad to see this.. World cup 1994.. I'm in 9 years old..

We will never forget him

I love colombia but i feel shame of our history, sadly we still live violent times in this country

I remember this goal, I was thinking right after the goal, some people are going to hurt him for that. Didn't see the killing coming, but I thought someone will beat him or something. I'm a Finn, but I've seen enough of Latin temper, and football crazy people from Latin America. Like the Brasilian guy who jumped through the window to his death after they lost the final to Uruguay. On the other hand, if Escobar believed in God, his words are prophetically true: - Life doesn't end here. I hope he's in Heaven now. Then he won't hold grudge to his killer. There peple are free from such thoughts. Hope the killer has found God, or will. MAy Jesus help him. Vayate con Dios.

C'est tellement triste, un beau message avant de partir d' Andrés Escobar, oui le foot et un jeu pr unir pk aller jusqu'à tué!? RIP ❤💕

From Chile Te amo Escobar

!!!!!! Andres Escobar per siempre !!!!!!

thats crazy man rip andres

It still hurts. RIP.

This is beyond sad :( May he RIP!

Wow, very sad 🤦🏽‍♂️ RIP Andrés Escobar

The look on Rincon's face at 1:54.

Siempre te recordaremos Escobar.

Deep condolences. RIP Andres

Rip always be remembered 🪦🪦🪦🪦

Colombia will never go anywhere close to this 2018 worldcup bcos of the sin committed against Escobar and his family. It's a pain they will always remember in time like this.

So sad

Soccer or football is just a sport. Life is more important than that. Our family is more important than any other thing.

Remembering to Escobar in 2019.

R. I. P. Andreas Escobar still remember this man was great football player, greetings from kosovo albania

how to make the effect shown in the video from time 3:57 ? where a specific point of the image is zoomed in and the others are blurred, preferably in sony vegas.

Tragic. I remember being shocked at the news. With England failing to qualify in 94 I supported Colombia for this World Cup. Colourful and full of flair at the time. They looked a real candidate to go and win the World Cup after a scintillating qualifying campaign and good results in warm up matches. I think the Romania loss took too much out of the players. Especially that freak goal by Hagi. Colombia tried and tried in that match with loads of possession but somehow that goal by Hagi had a profound effect and you just felt nothing was going to go right for Colombia

Colombian fans say that national team players were overconfident. The truth is almost the whole country were overconfident; People on the streets said that Colombia was the best football team on the planet. They also took for granted that the Tricolor was going to be world champions in 1994. The only doubt that Colombian fans had was what was going to be the opponent that Colombia would easily beat in the final. The same unjustified triumphalism is currently maintained.

End? No the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey-rain curtain of this world rolls back and all turn to silver glass, and then you see it. What? Gandalf? See what? White shores. And beyond... A far green country, under a swift sunrise. Well... That isn't so bad No. No it isn't

He is so good

muy triste, lo que pasa día a día en nuestro país

So no one is going to talk about Maradona supporting colombia 0:25

Colombia is a country I will always be very proud of. Soccer in here has a very different social context than in other countries, entire families depend on positive match results at the World Cup to improve their life, or even to be able to get a small income to get by finantially and survive. In other countries they just win to prove their ego is enormous and that they are supposedly "the best in the world"; of course I'm not implying that the Colombia players don't try to prove their top quality in the game - the point is that the context of the World Cup is very different from country to country. Although violence has been a part of its social and political history, the recent Peace Agreement has improved things, and along with a lot of hard work and support from other countries, the Colombian society will keep improving, so please stop any ranting and support Colombia, heck, even pay a visit and you will be well received in here! ;) Much Love to All!

Respect Escobar🙏

He should be a legend card in fifa ultimate team

Hope those 2 that missed their PK's today don't end up dead

Truelly I am ur big fan you not die my Hart In the world ur the bestes I am diffenter

O narcotráfico colombiano 🇨🇴 ceifou a vida do Escobar só porque o rapaz teve a infelicidade de fazer um gol contra. 😢😢😢😢 Lamentável!!!! Descansa em paz, Escobar!!!! 🙇‍♂️

RIP........ 😭😢

El eterno 2 de la selección 🇨🇴

Really really really sad

💕💕

♥️

Feeling very bad for him rip

Every time the world cup season coming, the team I support is Mexico, Paraguay & Columbia..why?.. because this team bring the most exciting skills & crazy with style of playing the football..of course when I see Colombia teams, memory of late Escobar will appear...

Italian striker Roberto Baggio of the 1994 world cup final, when his sudden death penalty shot missed the net completely, he lived to play football for another few yrs and coach as well. Had he been Colombian, his life would have ended within 1 yr. Seriously though when grand superstars like current Soccer star Megan Rapinoe has a Penalty Kick to take , and she knows the opposing goalie has watched all her videos and knows where she is most likely to kick it,,,,as the kicker you got to kick left corner low when the goalie expect left corner high or vice versa. Had Baggio thought along those lines, then Italy would have won the 1994 World Cup...But Brazil of 1994 was still dam awesome.

como fazer o efeito mostrado no video a partir d tempo 3:57 ? onde é dado um zoom em ponto específico da imagem e as outras vão ficando desfocadas, de preferência no sony vegas.

RIP from🇬🇧

Surprisingly nobody in mexico was mad when edson alvarez scored an auto goal in the 2018 WC with sweden

Hope Netflix will make documentary of this poor man

I remember the day he was pronounced dead, very sad day for football. Wonder why a man would be killed for an unintentional mistake. Surely something like this would never ever happen again in the football world

Q.E.P.D Andres Escobar 1967-1994

😭😭

Remembering Andres Escobar in 2018 world cup

Mistakes are bound to happen. Its more important that you stood for your Nation. Shame on those who took his life. Its a game and one should enjoy it. Nobody has the right to take one's life.

👏👏👏👏👏👏

RIP

If he had apologized to country,,, people will be able to forgive,, but he has that attitude,, life goes on,,, hurted the fans even more

So sad ,god has him now

Muertes absurdas y dolorosas en Colombia: el politico Luis Carlos Galan, el periodista Jaime Garzon, y el futbolista Andres Escobar! Claro que hay mas...

It's not only "just sports" when it involves gambling

This was the best national team in the world at the time. Andres.

even CR 7 ever made his own goal with header while Madrid against Granada. RIP Escobar.

Super Супер

Andrés Escobar was the greatest defender in Colombian soccer. Can’t believe he was murdered by those bad peeps

Mistakes happen

Hay que saber perder, con dignidad y honor. No con odio, pues algún día ese que perdio podria ser ganador, y sera un ganador digno y de honor.

RIP Andres Escobar!

A lot of intolerance in Colombia. Fútbol is a game, in a game you can win or lose 😢

Hats off to FIFA...
