Road to Russia
Columbia’s problem over the past two years is their lack of goals despite having such talented forwards. If Jose Pekerman solves this problem during their friendlies, there’s no reason why they won’t be able to achieve what they did in the 2014 tournament and more.
There are a lot of positives to draw from the Colombian side. Before 2014, they hadn’t featured in the FIFA World Cup tournament since 1990. They are finally becoming an omnipresent side in the final 32 international sides. Their best years are probably yet to come since their squad is rich in young players that are playing for World class teams across a large selection of leagues.
Key Players
Radamel Falcao is perhaps the best known player for the Colombian side, with an impressive number of clubs behind his belt. As part of the winning side for AS Monaco in Ligue 1. His impressive goal scoring record will hopefully be increased for his country during the 2018 Russia World Cup period. In september 2017, behind Brazil on home soil, it was Falcao who brought them back level with an impressive header, also sparking an unprecedented level of enthusiasm for players and supporters alike.
One to Watch
James Rodriguez is currently on loan to Bayern Munich from Real Madrid. The attacking midfielder has two FIFA club world cup titles under his belt as well as the Golden Boot in the 2014 Brazil World Cup. A very impressive player to have in any squad, Columbia will using the full benefits of such an exciting and experienced player in European football to their advantage in the 2018 Russia World Cup.
