In Colombia, the atmosphere is very hot. After being eliminated from the World Cup in Russia last Tuesday, Mateus Uribe and Carlos Bacca – players who failed on penalties against England (which meant say goodbye to the competition) – has received death threats on social networks.

Internet was filled with threatening insults directed against football players

" I hate you, Carlos Bacca, I hate everything about you, I hate your lack of definition, your lack of definition the name of animal and your calf game " has published a user.

Meanwhile, another disciple wrote: "Uribe hope you die". In addition, another said: "It was the last match for Mateus Uribe, this man is already dead." Much of the rest of the publications is impossible to reproduce, because of its high offensive content.

Similarly, the defender Carlos Sánchez saw reactions in the networks and death threats after being expelled in the third minute of play against Japan

However, despite the insults and threats, others defended the athletes, and recalled the tragic episode of Andres Escobar in 1994.

Escobar was a defender who played in the 1994 World Cup and had an unfortunate move in which he scored a goal against the United States. After this incident, he was shot six times in the streets of Bogotá, losing his life
