The story focuses on Pablo Escobar, the cocaine drug kingpin, and Andres Escobar, a Colombian soccer star, who was shot to death in Colombia, for accidentally scoring on his own net in a crucial game.

I will second this. I liked The Two Escobars so much I bought the movie. Even my girlfriend, who has little to no interest in sports, was riveted by the movie.
That and Into The Wind (Terry Fox) are my favourites. The latter actually chokes me up, which is damn hard to do.

Excited to see this new one. I follow Kevin Connolly on the Twitter and he's been pumping it a lot lately.
