    Si vi el juego. Colombia le falta mucho en lo que es el ataque o delantera. Y que paso con Calero?? Si habia jugadas buenas que hizo Colombia pero al fin no tuvieron definicion. Paraguay se vio muy superior. Pero aun les deseo lo mejor al equipo colombiano. Se vee dificil Argentina.. eso si lo digo.

    I'm shocked at this result. I never thought Paraguay had the offensive potential to score 5 on anyone... great performance by the guaranies, I'm sure.

    I truly wonder what really happened top Calero. As far as I know he's had a superb year with Pachuca.

    Enrique Vera has been playing well lately, I can see him going to a bigger club pretty soon.

    Jonathan Santana dissapointed me but hey its only his 1st international right? Atleast its the first I seen of him so I'll give him more time to gel with the team before judging him.

    By the way, did you notice that Roque plays much better with short hair? Like the BabyGol of old :-D

    the whole team sucked big time, but what sucks the most is that we have no forwards....and why is Dominguez playing with the 9 jersey?

    Congrats Guaranis, truly the group of death, and colombia is dead now, only a miracle (if we get 6 goals in the next game) is going to save us.

    Also, if we had 11 players with the attitude Viafara had last night, he was the only one running and willing to shoot at goal, he may not be a good player, but he has stones, everyone else was just playing hot potato and trying "jugadas de lujo."

    Colombia, uno a uno (Tres diferentes analisis de el tiempo, el pais, y futbolred.)



    Paraguay goleó 5-0 a Colombia en su estreno en la Copa América 2007; ¡humillante debut!

    En un equi¿po que pierde 5 a 0, es poco lo que se puede rescatar.

    Miguel Calero: fue el gran sacrificado del juego. Tuvo culpa en varios goles. (3)



    No tuvo mucho que ver en resultado, aunque en el primer gol su reacción fue muy leve y le facilitó la definición a Roque Santacruz.

    pudo haber hecho un poco más, por lo menos en tres de los goles. El balance es flojísimo.


    Gerardo Vallejo: se le notó falto de jerarquía y de temperamento para jugar a nivel de Selección. (2)

    mal en defensa y pésimo en ataque.



    Aunque nunca pudo enviar un balón al área de Paraguay, se mostró seguro en la marca e intentó colaborar con el ataque cuando las circunstancias del juego lo dejaban. De los 11 inicialistas, fue el más regular de todos.



    Iván Ramiro Córdoba: Sin distancia, sin dinámica, tarde en la marca y el anticipo. Falló en la gran mayoría de los goles. No pudo frenar el ataque paraguayo. ¡Pésimo! (2)

    de los peores partidos en la Selección. Lento y comprometido en tres goles.



    Los primeros minutos del juego se mostró muy sobrio y lideró una defensa que parecía no presentar mayores inconvenientes. Después de la primera anotación, bajó su rendimiento, como la mayoría de los jugadores colombianos que ingresaron a la cancha. En el segundo y tercer gol tuvo mucha responsabilidad por la floja marca a Santacruz.



    Mario Alberto Yepes: no está en el nivel que se le conoce. La lesión y la falta de fútbol lo hacen ver inseguro y aparatoso. (2)

    se contagió del nerviosismo de su compañero. También sufrió para marcar.


    No tiene el ritmo de juego que mostraba antes de su lesión. Se le vio a destiempo en muchos momentos del partido, y no fue el mismo jugador importante de los juegos amistosos en jugadas de balón parado.



    Javier Arizala: el único que lo sostiene es Pinto. Nadie entiende por qué está allí. ¡Ni fu ni fa! (2)

    muy nervioso y sin criterio para salir jugando. Se dedicó a mandar pelotazos.
    Fue uno de los jugadores más discretos del combinado nacional. Nunca levantó un centro con peligro y su marca fue deficiente.



    John Viáfara: comenzó bien, pero sus falencias técnicas opacan su gran despliegue físico. (3)

    se mostró mucho en el primer tiempo, pero es muy aparatoso y no tiene claridad.
    No fue el jugador determinante que esperaba Pinto. Sus constantes salidas generaban peligro, pero en contra de Colombia. Los espacios que dejó por su costado fueron muy bien aprovechados por Paraguay. A pesar de tener en su pegada una de sus mejores cualidades, en esta ocasión no atinó un tiro al arco.



    Fabián Vargas: fue el encargado de la marca y el sacrificio, aunque está peleado con la pelota. (4)

    mucho despliegue, pero de marca nada. No es un filtro seguro en el mediocampo.
    Trató de colaborar en lo suyo, pero sin duda alguna no está en su mejor momento. Estuvo muy errático en la entrega del balón y nunca pudo regresar con la rapidez que los ataques rivales exigían.



    Álvaro Domínguez: botó el penalti y estaba asustado. ¡Muy mal! (2)

    totalmente perdido y jugando muy lejos de Ferreira. Fue muy displicente en el penal.
    Decepcionante presentación del jugador que el estratega colombiano escogió como el líder en la mitad de la cancha. Ejecutó de forma displicente un penalti que fue trascendental en el trámite del juego y del resultado.



    David Ferreira: unas sí y otras no. Son más sus ganas que la claridad que le da al equipo. (3)

    funcionó por ratos. Pero no pesó como creativo.
    Cuando está en su día siempre será importante para Colombia. Se mostró incisivo, punzante, pero no tuvo la compañía suficiente para generar peligro en el arco contrario. Fabricó las pocas oportunidades de gol que se le presentaron a Colombia en el partido.



    Edixon Perea: las pocas opciones aisladas de Colombia llegaron a través de él. (3)

    sólo levantó en un tramo del segundo tiempo, pero se le vio distante de la zona de gol.
    Al comienzo del juego no tuvo mayor influencia en el ataque, pero a medida que pasaron los minutos fue ganando protagonismo. Creó un par de ocasiones de gol que el arquero y la defensa rival controlaron si problema alguno. Malogró un gol casi hecho en la segunda parte, cuando Macnelly Torres centró un balón al punto del penal, que falló en el remate.



    Hugo Rodallega: comenzó bien, pero ni sombra del atacante de otros juegos. No aportó mayor cosa en el frente de ataque. (2)

    quiso imponer algo de velocidad, pero se diluyó.
    No se vio en el juego. El partido amistoso jugado en Barranquilla ante Ecuador fue solo una ilusión. Fue la fiel estampa de su rendimiento en la última temporada en México.





    Macnelly Torres: ingreso a dar movilidad de mediocampo hacia adelante, pero sin mayor fortuna. (2)

    entró por Domínguez y se perdió.
    Cuando Jorge Luís Pinto lo envió a la cancha por Domínguez, se esperaba que desenredara un mediocampo que no encontraba el camino al gol. No tuvo la claridad que mostró en Barranquilla ante Ecuador. Se mostró nervioso ante las circunstancias del juego y nunca logró echarse el equipo al hombro.



    Vladimir Marín: fue más el desastre que armó que la solución que dio por la banda izquierda. (sc)

    entró para volantear y terminó como mal lateral.
    Ingresó en la segunda etapa por Javier Arizala. Poco pudo hacer ante un equipo que estaba destruido anímicamente y que estaba dos goles por debajo en el marcador.



    Luis Gabriel Rey: nada pudo hacer. El juego ya estaba sentenciado. (sc)

    muy poco tiempo

    Jugó 15 minutos. Ante la ausencia de volantes que lo surtieran de balón recurrió a la búsqueda de este para tratar sin fruto alguno de generar opciones de gol.

    Quick note for the argies.

    If Calero is the goalie for your game against Colombia, just shoot , shoot and keep shooting. Chances are most of those will go in.

    Did Calero stop anything last night?

    Colombia !! PARAGUAY IS TU PAPA !Please no more Calero nor Vargas ever

    Jajajaj I got to laugh at that, and you Colombians can't complain that we were not gracefull winners, I still remember when you beat Argentina 5-0 colombian fans Had no mercy on the Argentines, for years and years to come, if we were half as bad as you guys were with them, some of your would have jumped out of a window by now.

    Arent you guys being a lil hard on Calero? Sure he had a bad game but I still think hes a solid keeper, hes been huge for Pachuca and wasent bad at all in the qualifiers.

    I dont think the goals where his fault, he looked a lil scared but the main reason he had to deal with the situations he was in was because the Colombian defense failed big time.

    You're right about our defense really leaving him out to dry. All the same, on the vast majority of the goals, he could have played it better. The second one in particular, he decided to try and block Santa Cruz from going outside than block the ball from going in... Terrible decision. Santa Cruz is good, but if he'd waited any longer to shoot that second goal, the angle would have been too sharp for him. So why would you put your body where the ball would be if he waited?!

    Calero really put the goalies before him to shame.

    im tired of hearing all the excuses of the coaching and the players. its plain and simple, we just don't have it any more. our players are just not that good. look who played yesterday. vargas: no one wants him, viafara second division team, rodallega can't get it done in mexico, edixon perea...plays god knows where in france and has scored how many goals??? IRC, the key man for coming up with mistakes in crucial games. the RB/LB fiasco: every game someone different plays, we don't know whos who. Rey the last time this guy scored a lot of goals on a club was in atlante, lets be realistic. marin and ferreria, libertad and atl para. :Big deal. everyone talks about we have potential. what potential? we don't have any big time fowards scoring goals anywhere. we dont have any midfielders playing well in big time clubs. we have a few central backs playing well in europe and thats it. we need to stop kidding ourselves and realize that these half a## athletes arn't good at all. dont call a boy to do a man's job.

    I agree with you there, If it was Ronaldo or Messy scoring a crappy goal, all the press would have been ranting about how great finishers they are. I think if you leave your goalie one on one 3 times like that your deffense is doing something wrong. Calero was not good yesterday but the way they left him by himself, 80% of the goalies from any country would have gotten the same result. If it was me I would have put more blame on the defense and certanly on the guy that missed the penalty kick, that was a crucial part of the game and not only did he kick the ball like a biaatch he had the nerve to just stand there and not even try to get the rebound.

    Calero retired from the NT after we failed to qualify for 2006 he said he didnt want to play for us anymore. Then he started doing well with Pachuca and then was like take me back, stupidly colombia did and he has f'd up many games. He is inconsistent. The only other game we lost was with Uruguay and its cause he got red carded in the 7th minute, other than that he has let in alot of goals were it looks like he was just day dreaming in goal.

    The sad thing is this is the team Pinto thinks is the best at the moment we have. I thought he should have sent in a young team mixed with players from Nacional (current champs), Cucuta (semis of libs) and Dep Cali (3rd best team in the league).

    Colombia is using players that have failed to qualify for 2 WCs and it seems like the coachs want to stick with them and make us fail to our 3rd. Calero,IRC, Yepes, Vallejo and Vargas. Its time to say goodbye. I have no hard feelings toward IRC and Yepes they just arent what they use to be and are tring and feel the loses but the other guys dont care and arent good. You cant blame them tho if I was called up for Colombia I wouldnt say no either but they have to be realistic they dont have talent nor speed they should not be on the team.

    paraguay is a great team but seriously if a team leaves the right side open the whole game and only attacks from the left it makes it very easy to score on them. Its also not so much the lose its the matter the team was clueless and unmotivated. It was like seeing Real Madrid play a 2nd division chinese team

    I think it was the third goal that really showed the lack of enthusiasm among Colombia's players. The defense was playing half-assed. They barely covered Santa Cruz, and Calero was probably just as surprised that he was so uncovered.

    Also, from my point of view, ever since Tino Asprilla left Colombia has had a constant rotation of forwards. No one has been good enough or consistent enough to be in the starting lineup for more than a few games. This has gone on for years now.

    donde esta Angel, Falcao, Pino??????

    Y no importa que no tengan figuras en el mundo, el futbol se juega en equipo, sino mira a Uruguay, son todos fenomenos en Europa y sinembargo, pierden contra Peru que la mayoria juegan en Peru, para mi es question de actitud, jerarquia, y ganas por mas talento que tengas, si te falta eso no les ganas a nadie.

    I dont know what Pinto was thinking like we had the depth of Brasil or Argentina. We have better young players than what he sent. He sent a team to simply be sold to other teams that was the purspose of this team. Everyone is on the verge of being signed by a better team or isnt wanted by their club. All players who are wanted by thier taems like Falcao, Renteria, Guarin werent called.

    He had at least 7 players who were better on his good faith list and they were cut from the team as soon as it was said they were going to brasil or france, ETC . Which i find annoyin because it is almost like punishment good job on getting into a better league and then he cuts them !!!

    I'm also shocked by the result since I thought Colombia had a solid defense but I never underestimated Paraguay's offensive power. I've been saying for a while that they have a very solid squad and their attack is the best in the tournament imo along with Argentina and Peru.

    Ohh and aguante Morel R. :).

    Yes we got raped but Paraguay does not have the best offense in the tournament its one good game. Peru played well but its been ONE GAME. Check in by the end of the tournament. These shalackings will keep there average high but niether one of these 2 teams will repeat the scoring from there first games.
