'Don't come home': Colombian stars who missed penalties against England receive DEATH THREATS from furious fans. This comes 24 years after a player was murdered for scoring a World Cup own goal. We all remember Escobar who who was shot dead after his own goal was blamed for sending Colombia home at the 1994 World Cup.

Colombians urged calm last night after the two players who missed penalties against England suffered insults and threats from furious fans on social media.

Vile messages targeting Mateus Uribe and Carlos Bacca started to appear within minutes of Colombia being knocked out of the World Cup following the dramatic shoot-out.

One post by Twitter user David Castaneda warned: 'Die Carlos Bacca. Son of a bitch. No-one wants you, gonorrhoea. To this country you don't return.
Another, Jhon Duqueismo, wrote: 'Thank you to all the players, except to three-time son of a bitch, useless, dead, Carlos Bacca. Don't come back here.'

HumorFPCosky wrote: 'I hate you Carlos Bacca, I hate all of you, I hate your indifference, your animal surname, and your ass's game. You're worse than a cancer, at least with cancer you can go to a doctor and find out what you have.

'Carlos Bacca, get depressed and kill yourself, so you don't continue living this agony.'

Patricio wrote: 'Uribe, you are a piece of shit, I hope you die.

Meanwhile, Escobar's brother had warned about this that if they lost, the home based players lives would be in danger.

Another user, INFINITO wrote: 'That was Mateus Uribe's last game, that man is already dead.'


Well, this kinda explains why the players were physically fighting to ensure they win that match last night. We all hope why happened in 1994 doesn't repeat itself.

I fear for these guys
hmnn.......ESCOBAR '94
The Columbian's government shouldn't allow that to happen, or better still they should be banned from participating in world cup. C'EST FINI!
