I still can’t believe that this man was murdered all because of a mistake that every football player makes. Rip Andress Escobar

[@leandrogarciatradutor1727]

That's true, a drug dealer offended Escobar saying 'you're a loser, we lost because of you' and he got mad at guy, and the guy shot him. The interesting thing is that when Colombia lost this game and the world cup, Escobar told his teammates: 'Life Doesn't End Here'.
