Twenty five years ago today Andres Escobar played what turned out to be his last game of football. I remember watching the game, his own goal and a loss for Columbia, never thinking for one minute what would transpire later.

It is said he was murdered as the cartels lost a lot of money betting on the game concerned. Football and Columbia will always remember him.

Remember that very sad it was in the World Cup.

I remember that idiot pundit Alan Hanson said after the game they Escobar needed to be shot for such bad defending.

One of his more accurate predictions

Alan Hansen didn't say that about Escobar after the game at all
