http://www.eltiempo.com/deportes/el...riunfo-historico-para-ir-al-mundial_4601653-1 "Colombia empató sin goles contra Brasil y logró un valioso punto para recuperar la esperanza Si la cuestión colombiana era de ganas (eso que ahora se denomina actitud), pues a sus jugadores no les dio pena nada: ni a Bedoya meter una patada, ni a Quintero tirarse a los pies de Robinho, ni a Toja meterle el hombre a Kaka, ni a Rentería encararse con Lucio. ¿Quién dijo miedo? Fueron 45 minutos en los que Toja, Guarín y Vargas patearon a borde de área, en los que Quintero montó dos contragolpes que terminaron en el córner, en el que Rentería estrelló un balón enredado en el portero Julio César... Sin embargo, la perfección no existe y las dos opciones de gol más claras del primer tiempo fueron brasileñas. A la media hora, Juan cabeceó sólido y Julio, en la línea de gol, detuvo en dos tiempos. Un minuto después Robinho (en presunta posición adelantada) hizo que Julio se tirara a la raíz del palo para desviar su disparo. El segundo tiempo también respondió al plan general, pero no fue tan cómodo, pues Brasil fue por el partido a ver si silenciaba los gritos de "burro, burro" que los cerca de 45 mil espectadores en el Maracaná le gritaban al entrenador de su equipo, Dunga. Un 0-0 enorme. Colombia tenía que hacer que las cosas pasaran. Hoy hay un nuevo punto de esperanza en la cancha y en la tabla de posiciones.

Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 Kaka se perdió pero le metió huevos durante todo el partido... Robinho si jugó pero MAL! Ps ojalá ustedes tengan razón y dejen al Profe Lara... el man si sabe de identidad futbolística.
Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 si segun pinto, nunca jugamos un partido malo bajo su mando
Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 a mi tambien me debes una caja de galletas de macademia/white chocolate!!! que fue lo que apostamos? seguro perdiste lokoII
Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 Ese man se la estaba fumando muy verde.........ja ja ja
Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 si kaka!! es un jugadorazo simplemente!!! pa mi el factor de su desaparicion fueron las dos patadas de bedoya al comienzoq lo dejo achantado y asustado a ricardo, robinho simpere me ha parecido una mentira q juega bn contra equipos con malas defensas
Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 Kaka se tuvo que echar atras porque no pudo con la defensa de Colombia, lo mismo Robinho, sus gambeticas no le resultaron por lo bien que marcamos, siempre relevando y escalonando las marcas..
Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 jajaja si jei jei, no nos creia la titular y tambn decia q armero iba jugar mal
lets continue here all post game impressions and good ideas for Lara's next 11 https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?p=16006776&posted=1#post16006776 do we agree this was colombia 's best game in 2008? or the 2-1 vs argentina was better?
Re: Brazil-Colombia, we continue our road to SOUTH AFRICA 2010 Ojalá... Ronaldinho está recuperándose favorablemente en el Milán y con más tiempo se pondrá en forma otra vez. Ronaldo es el mayor fenómeno a lo bn, ya se recuperó de esa terrible lesión en la otra pierna y seguro que vuelve a jugar. Si a mí Robinho también me raya un poco, pero a veces juega ecelente... es muy inconsistente. Lo que no entiendo es como no juega MARCELO el del Real Madrid... que joven para tener un futuro increíble, y tiene una calidad inmensa. Tiene una gambeta extraordinaria y le agrega por la banda izquierda muchísimo en los equipos que juega... Para el Real cada vez que lo ponen el man la rompe, aunque le falta madurar... especialmente defensivamente... pero entre Cleber, Juan (el otro) Gilberto y él yo lo pongo en la titular FIJO.
I think against Paraguay we looked better actually... but attitude-wise this is by FAR the best game.
I see some of you guys think Kaka was bad in this game. I thought quite the contrary. In my opinion, he was the best brazilian on the pitch, apart from Maicon, Juan and Lucio. Kaka was fouled countless times this game (and there's nothing wrong with that, killing our counter attack is the best way to shut down this barren in possession Brazil), and the only way our team seemed to get higher up the pitch is when he got back to take the ball to the offense. Aside from that, we were basically waiting for Lucio to scuff long balls so we could try something from that. This brazilian team can't play in possession, if you look at the stats I think something like 80% of our goals come from counter attacks, and other 15% from dead ball situations.
kaka tried but the whole tactic move from Dunga is way too predictable shut kaka down and the rest are gone! robinho....why he did not took a more creative role?
dos de los grandes hoy parece que Armero se adueño del puesto. uds creen que cuando esten edixon - falcao y Soto listos tienen puesto en la seleccion de Lara?
lara dijo q falcao, es un jugador q parecia mucho y le tiene mas cariño por jugar en argentina, perea esta listo y fue llamado alista de espera y todo, en otra oportunidad se sabra............lara no ha dicho nada acerca de soto
I think we have another good problem right now.... what will be when Cristian Zapata and Aquivaldo will be fit to play?? Our best players today were Amaranto (who Pinto had been able to fight with him) and Super Mario (who idiot Pinto had been able to fight with him as well). If you ask me, I continue with both of them vs. Bolivia also, it seems like they have perfect match between them. I can't belive that Yepes plays in Chievo and not in a bigger club, definitly worth it.
After watching the match it seems that Toja played awesome! What do you think, amigos? Do you have the still opinion as me?
My grades for the game: Julio-Didn't have much work, responded well for the 3-4 dangerous options. 7. zuniga-Was good in the first half, joined the attack many times and also defended well. Disappeared a little bit during the second half in the offense part but kept his good defense game. 7. Perea-Excellent match for Amaranto. Nautrelized the Brazilian attacks time after time. I admit that before Paraguay I didn't want him to play, glad I was wrong, great decision of Lara. 9. Yepes-Amazing!! we missed our old Super Mario simply perfect!!! 10. Armero-Played very well, both in defense and offense. In general I liked the Colombian game from both flanks, right and left. 8. Guarin-Another good game of this young talented player. stopped the Brazilian attacks with Bedoya in the middle of the field, and started the Colombian attacks also. In my opinion needed to shoot more on goal (like some other players) 8. Bedoya-Apparently the veterans added a lot for the NT. Bedoya was one of them, I would like to see him shoot much more, he has killer left foot!! I would definitly consider him for the next game. 7. Vargas-For me, the biggest surprise of this game. After we all put him down hard, he showed sacrifice, fought on every loose ball, defended well, needed to shoot more on goal when he was open. In general, very good game. 7.5. Toja-Good debut for Steaua's player. Was activated very much from left side, played like he is in the NT for few years. again, like Guarin and Vargas, needed to shoot more when he had the option, all of them have very good long distance kicks. It would also make the Brazilian defenders to move forward to block the shots and then the area was much available. 7.5. Quintero-For me, one of the best players in this game. He was amazing in the first half, was very activated, made a terrible head ache for the Brazilian defenders who tried to stop him. He also needed to shoot more, and when he'll be more mature he'll be much better player. Yesterday he still had the extra dribble that wasn't necesarry instead of shooting from a range that he already scored from, but I'm very happy from him. He showed that a thin but fast player can play in the highest levels. 8.5. Renteria-Another surprise for me. Before Paraguay I wasn't sure that he supposed to open since he barely played this season, but he showed why he was one of the best strikers in France last year. Much more accurate shot in the 71 minute and we were with 3 points, But I'm glad that we received our Wason back. Hopefully he'll score vs. Bolivia. 8. Aguilar-I like to see that Abel didn't forget to play football. Continued Bedoya's work and was good at. Deserve to be in a better team in my opinion. 7. Dayro-Maybe should have entered earlier, and maybe instead of Vargas, but as soon as he entered, he started with his dribbles and also shoot couple of times, I like this player more and more in every game. It won't help us, but IF he would play vs. Paraguay............ 7.5. Ramos-wasn't play too much so we can impress from him, but no doubt that this player is good, and deserve to be in the NT. Profe Eduardo Lara-Our big star of this round. I never thought that I can praise a coach who got 1 point out of 6. He received NT without confidence, less then a month before it's toughest round and did his best. We lost at home, vs. 8 defenders Paraguay even that we played wonderful, but if I was sure that we'll come to Brazil to defend only, Lara showed that he also wants to win, unlike other coach that we all "love".... I really really hope that Lara will stay with us at least until the end of these qualifiers...No doubt that with him we'll fight until the end!! Bravo Profe!! 10.
I think that we found our answer to Giovanni's spot...Darwin Quintero. He comes back when he loses the ball, doesn't stop working, and is fearless. I love saying this..."I TOLD YOU SO". My favorite part was when he was out on the break with Lucio and didn't back down not one bit. I agree he still has to develop more but he gives us a huge spark. I agree, I think that we played better against Paraguay but it was a good performance but man do we have a lot of work to do. March is a long time to wait. That's what...4 Months . Would love to see Quintero, Falcao, and Wason together.
jajajaj Actually it's 5 months and a half, the end of March 2009 . The game vs. Paraguay was better cause we attacked more and it was a home match. It's much more impressive to play like this vs. a NT like Brazil in their stadium. My best part of this game was when we passed the ball and their crowed shout "ole" jajajaja . I really hope that Lara will stay, cause it means that he'll keep with this players and he brought a new spirit and hope to the NT and to us, the fans. Man, I can't wait for March....But with all the excitment, don't forget that first we MUST win Bolivia at home, the same team who drew 0-0 in Brazil, like us. Won't be an easy one, especially because of our goals problem. Hopefully the gate will open against them, even though right now I'm willing to sign of small 1-0 Colombian jajajaja.
me vole del turno pa verme el partido de la seleccion y valio la pena... darwin es tremendo pa los q criticaban su convocatoria porq es un alfeñique... los 2 amistosos q vienen son buenos... 2 equipos fuertes y q le daran la oportunidad a lara (si es q continua) de consolidar un equipo para el proximo partido... q le de la oportunidad a edwin valencia y q busque armar un mediocampo ofensivo... y pues darle la oportunidad a falcao pa ver si estorba o si si sirve pa la sele...
yea colombia left me quite amaze. i think vargas shut me up good. he did wonderful, to think how disgustingly crap he did with pinto..... quintero es un crack, he needs to mature but this guy seems to be going to be better than pino. Perea and yepes perfect, i love aquivaldo and cristian zapata but like pibe10 said, perea and yepes did wonderful and should deserved to start next games.... armero is another one that left me so dam impressed... how he defended and attack was unbelivable. we have a new lb starter.
