Haha

I like the fact that Colombia is playing with double 5, double 10 and double 9 like in 90s.

Colombia u20 is in the final of Toulon Tournament again after defeating France 3-1 and getting 9 of 9 points and one game missing, its rival will be Brazil this saturday.
and this Friday, Colombia will have a really important match in the World Cup qualification against Argentina, I'm really hoping for a win to be sure we will be in the next WC. Go Falcao!

 

[Zyreq]

Is Colombia in 3rd place for WCQ? Goodluck against Argentina! It's a shame Colombia's U20 couldn't play Mexico's U20

 

[Sepak]

yes they are, and well, Mexico should've played better against Brazil.

 

[Back Door Skip]

Mexico should have put away the chances, but luck wasn't there that day. Brazil looks good, surprising that group didn't qualify for the World Cup.

I think Mexico is treating this as a bit of a tune up for the World Cup because there's a lot of players that don't belong. That or we should be very worried, because outside of Tecatito, Mexico has looked poor. 3rd place is the best that can be done, which is a bit disappointing. But if this means a better performance in the World Cup, I'm all for it.

This tourney is Colombia's to win.

 

[Sepak]

the draw between Venezuela and Bolivia helps us, I'm glad the venezuelan referee didn't do anything wrong(in our favor), Ospina is a beast, if not for him, we would have lost.
In spite Messi gave a lot more confidence to Argentina, it diluted rapidly and Colombia contained him very well(he's not at his best though). After those red cards the game was a mess, it became physical and intense, didn't like that.
And I hope James and Ospina are ok for the next match.
Anyway, we still can beat the hell out of Peru...

 

[Sepak]

first and las goal were great

 

[Back Door Skip]

Thanks Colombia!


That win qualified Mexico.

 

[MaSsiVe]

[Sepak]

that's great! he's so talented, it would really have depressed me if he had gone to that other sucky team

 

[Back Door Skip]

What's in the Colombian waters that they're producing so much talent in the past 2-3 years?

 

[Filipower]

Waters, sure.

 

[Arnau]

Porto is a great place for Quintero to develop and then force some rich club to pay €40m for him. Damn Porto bitches, faster than anyone else again...

I'm not sure how reliable this can be and even less who started this rumour over the streets but it has been whispered that the government hired an aboriginal shaman to balance the cosmos and give Colombia good luck in football

yeah, every colombian in Porto has been a total success, I haven't seen how Héctor Quiñones has been doing there though

Since Shakira gives a fuck about this sport, Colombian football hasn't stop rising. Coincidence? i don't think so.
