Pablo Escobar was the richest, most powerful drug lord in the world, ruling the Medellín Cartel with an iron fist. Andres Escobar was the biggest soccer star in Colombia. Although not related, their fates were inextricably-and fatally-intertwined. Pablo's drug money had turned the national team into South American champions, but when Andres scored an "own goal" that eliminated his team from the 1994 World Cup it ultimately cost him his life. For Colombians, soccer was far more than a game: their entire national identity rode on the success or failure of their team. The Two Escobars is a riveting examination of the intersection of sports, crime, and politics.
