Balance of Colombia: more doubts than points and without reconciliation with the fan

The 2-2 draw against Paraguay brings Colombia To the 2026 World Cup. However, the football level affected confidence in the process.

Sixth in the table with 20 points. Thus the selection ended this double qualifying day. The harvest was poor, just a draw that keeps it depending on itself for classification. The accounts give, although something broke down on the road. The credibility with the fans went down.

Downturn of the cycle referents

There are unknown individual yields. Richard Ríos He lost attitude to mark, precision in the exit and accompaniment in attack. Daniel Muñoz gave influence since the expulsion against Uruguay from Copa América. It does not have the round trip of the Premier League. The same thing happens with Jefferson Lerma of just a recovery against the Paraguayans, when he added 39 in nine games.

No air game

The last goal in that way scored in front of Chile in October. A coincidence of a corner kick that bounced on the head of Dávinson Sánchez. That praised formula at the beginning for its effectiveness and in the Copa América was left aside. James’s shipments lost effect. Muñoz centers are missed.

Weak defense

To date Ten Colombia had received six goals. It was solid back! On four dates allowed eight: three from Uruguay, one from Ecuador, two from Brazil and another pair of Paraguay. The sides take their returns, the centrals show nerves at exit. The 4-2 of the scheme is under repair.

Lorenzo confuses the changes

There is crisis and the DT exacerbates it with the changes. Sometimes it takes them to the tiredness of players or respect the trajectories too much. Before Paraguay he took Jhon Arias with good game and the team lost reaction. James was discreet and Juan Fernando Quintero’s option was more viable to hold the ball.He left it at the bank.

Lack of attention in the end

Two visitor draws escaped in addition. He struggled to match in Montevideo and Brasilia and with a naps behind resigned all that work.

Luis Díaz, the best in Colombia

Liverpool wine hit by the elimination of UEFA Champions League and the League Cup. In the selection he reversed that energy with two goals and commitment. At 97, he physically, he supported Johan Mojica to clear a Paraguayan advance.“Fought” It is example.

What follows for the selection

In June he will receive the penultimate Peru and visit the Argentine leader. The DT started with self -criticism.

“It is the same group, the same work that gave us so many satisfactions. We have to improve to get out of this situation, so far the defeats were not deserved, but today it is a tie are bitter taste“He concluded.
