Colombia was shaken by the murder of Andrés Escobar, the defender of Nacional and the Colombian National Team, who was killed days after finishing his participation in the 1994 World Cup in the United States.
Escobar was approached by a man, who complained about his elimination from the US National Team, and then he was attacked with a firearm, shots that took his life.

The causes of the terrible moment
The central defender is commissioned by the actor Juan Pablo Urrego, who was chosen by Netflix to be the protagonist of the series, which will be released on November 2.
“This is the story of the dream of a country and a team that, game after game, was falling apart, in a nightmare that would take some to death,” said Netflix.
It was not easy to choose the actors, who will play Francisco Maturana, Hernán Darío ‘Bolillo’ Gómez, René Higuita, Leonel ÁlvarezLuis Carlos Perea and Carlos the ‘Pibe’ Valderrama.
The series deals with Escobar, about to get married and recovered from a serious injury. He had the endorsement of Maturana to be Valderrama’s successor as captain of the National Team, when the samarium left football.
It is also revealed what Escobar’s operation would be like to get to the fsoccer from Italy, because Milan wanted itas a replacement for Franco Baresi, the legendary player.
In the same way, the series tries to clarify several issues, such as that his murder was linked to drug trafficking issues or the issue of soccer betting.
