Colombian National Team General Thread

Happy independence day everyone.

 

I wish they could have booked Colombia vs Mexico at RedBull Arena instead. just 3 days apart. That would have been a full house easily...

Any case, i got tickets for wifey and I. My uncle will probably go too...

 

How much those tickets cost if I may ask?.

 

crap team. Id go if Diaz was doing a signing before the game

 

Not only was I there in 1996, I was a friend of the referee:

on ticketmaster, they are as cheap as $70 (including fees) up to $200-300 (plus fees) for the really good seats. I got decent seats for $150 each (including fees)

 

Shea stadium! i only went there once for a baseball game. Citi field is fun, but i always find a certain charm to the old school baseball stadiums

 

LOL - the players usually stay at the W hotel in Hoboken. That's your best bet.

 

what? ..... dude stop being president like a week ago.... and instead of helping the country or his party. He joins Fifa haha

wow

 

Did you expect something different for that mediocre man (putting it kindly)

 

It's your time Crazy. Your time to take over the Colombian Federation and get us back on track!

 

he's got my vote =)

 

Cuesta is almost 30? How many pro games has he had?

sad state of GKs for our NT if this is the best we have outside of Ospina and Vargas.

 

You beat me to the punch. I was about to ask for opinions on this. I don’t know much about these keepers

 

From what I’ve seen of Mier he looks pretty good (small sample size though). I’m sure other people here have seen more of him.

 

Mier started last tournament VERY shakey, however by the end of the championship was a very sharp keeper. However he started this tournament shakey again. However he is 10x better than Quintana who is our N. 2 keeper.

 

I’m fine with Mier and Montero as they are the best we have and are relatively young. Chunga was completely wasted at Junior been great last 2 season but needs to move to a better club or Junior needs to finally bring him back for Viera.

Montero and Cuesta are both 6’5 giants. I’ve seen Cuesta play very little. Did he bench the Ecuadorian last season? Or has just been great the first few games to warrant this call up ?

 

as shit as this guy was he would have qualified us…..


What other coach would have tied 8 fking games with 0 goals scored
