Colombia became again Colombia

Colombia passed the toughest test since Pekerman came in command of the team. Not in past playoffs , nor indeed in the world, nor in the America 's Cup , the team had so much pressure to get good results.

And it is that after the slow start of World Cup qualifying course Russia, coupled with a dismal performance in the Copa America last year, the pressure on the group, and especially on the coaching staff, was too strong.

From the fans, to press the pressure was intense. The poor results in the first four dates forced Colombia to get good results in these two dates, against two very tough opponents: Bolivia in La Paz and Ecuador in Barranquilla. Otherwise, it would be compromised the World Cup qualifying, and even the continuity of Pekerman as coach of the national team.

But today the story is different. Colombia was able to straighten his path . Showed football, delivery and above all the desire to be back in a World Cup event.

After a dramatic victory in La Paz, where players gave everything they had in their physical, the result was more than worth it. And the leader after the win of these playoffs, the present team returns to delude all Colombians, with to see his flag in a World Cup.

With these two victories, the team is alive again, full of hope and above all, with the confidence to understand that if the rest of the playoffs is played, how are you two dates were played, Russia will not be as far as it seemed at the beginning .

It is that in addition to finding a new strategy developed with Pekerman, where he used a lone striker in point, the team showed unity, camaraderie and above all hungry to return to the World Cup.

The participation of new players was vital in these two games. Cases like Sebastian Perez , Oscar Murillo, Farid Diaz and Marlos Moreno, together with Daniel Torres who just completed four games with the national team, shows that no union in the group. Because they fit perfectly in a group coming to play the World Cup and the Copa America, and suffered heavy casualties, historical players, but with intelligence, were known convene and attached to an idea.

Colombia today is more alive than ever on the way to Russia. Today Colombia again showed hunger for the goal and the claw that characterized it in the last round. Today Colombia regained its football, balance and especially the clear idea that you worked so hard to Pekerman during start of the playoffs.


Today Colombia, was again the best Colombia.
