Colombia Solidarity Grows with Campos after Death Threats
The Colombian midfielder Jameerson Campas received death threats after his country's team was eliminated from the 2026 World Cup, following his failure to convert a crucial chance in the Round of 16 match against Switzerland. The Colombian Football Federation expressed its full support for him and his family, emphasizing its rejection and condemnation of these threats which were directed at him after the penalty shootout loss. These threats bring to mind Colombia's history of violence during the 1980s and 1990s, and recall the tragic case of defender Andrés Escobar, who was murdered in 1994 after accidentally scoring an own goal in his team's World Cup match.
