Today is the 20 year anniversary of the defender who was shot dead for conceding an own goal at USA 1994 and knocking his own country out...
Still so shocking!

He was meant to go to las vegas after the world cup as his family lived there, he chose to go back to Colombia and was murdered.

Faryd Mondragon who came on against Japan was a friend of his and was in the 1994 squad. Very emotional for him today I imagine.
