The U-20 team plays on Wednesday the round of 16 at the World Cup in Chile against South Africa, where it meets an acceptable participation so far, in terms of objectives met. He was first in group phase with five points, achieved by winning Saudi Arabia and drawing with Norway and Nigeria. Thanks to the “Fair Play” standard with the lowest number of yellow cards, the first phase square was achieved, and that is why the rival is the Bafana Bafana Junior, who made six points after two victories and a defeat. The selection led by César Torres played better against the Nigerians in the first half, compared to the two previous games, but in the second part of the game he was able to lose to the insistence of the Africans.
Without a doubt, the best Colombian men in the championship have been their two central defenses: Mosquera and García, of good foot and fast. Perea briefly stands out and stop counting. There is no brilliance so far, individually speaking, and the collective has surrendered in numbers, but little in the ways. It is a team of transitions per band, long releases of the centrals and very little interior game. Its main letter for this purpose: Barrera, it was hidden in the first two meetings and on Sunday it did not participate. González gave more reliability to the middle center with Rivero, without Landázuri, and his scoring sheets, Villarreal and Aristizábal, have not been effective and are sacrificed by the system.
Anyone who reads until this moment off guard would not understand much, so why we have done well, but we must remind him that in any case these are these categories. Nothing guarantees that a good participation is achieved well. It is not a lie to think that the World Cup begins in Eighths, like many elderly competitions. Irregularity is the common denominator of the youth, who can show the best of their essences from now on or definitely continue with their flavor football and leave the path achieved until today. The truth is that I ask for more identity to a Sub-20 that we notice ours, handling the ball well and with a much more pleasant expression. Comparing processes of the social structure, it is a teenage category, where adults are finished. If you play badly, they will continue to play later. You can't ferly tomorrow.
Some ask for several players that when they reach the Absolute they have had a process for at least one of the training selections, and so it must be. Others claim without blushing that it is not necessary that with only one that arrives is enough. Europeans pay more attention to the euro sub-21 than this World Cup and Conmebol or the other federations are interested in unifying for now, apparently. There is an option to advance despite what is shown.
If someone says that we are going to be champions, they could buy the theory to know what it is to win something in FIFA tournaments finally, but generally to get victories we need to play much better. We trust so.
