Five virtues of Colombia in the group stage of Russia 2018 – World Cup Russia 2018

1. Resilience

It is defined as the ability to adapt to a disruptive agent. And yes, there was that in the first phase! A complete beginning of doubts against Japan, with a team without identity and full of fears; a Poland that was a threat in the air game, one of the Saransk moles; a nice match in Kazan but with the red balance of James' physical discomfort, which keeps us on the brink today; an enredadísimo party, most fought who played in the first time against Senegal, with the imminent risk of a goal in every approach. All against! And of all the team has been raised by the strength of attitude, trust and ambition. With each shot depressed, a right-winged type right in response. Concerns the web!

2. Talent

The day that Colombia decided to play football on June 24 in Kazan, another story began to be written in Russia. It all started with the national clarity of seeing James and Quintero play together because they know each other, they admit, they understand each other, they love each other and they look for each other, especially they look for each other, even without looking at each other, when they enter the field. And they meet! He was understood by the coach and he bet on that knowing that only the talent could straighten the way to the World Cup. Go right! From them left the beautiful night of Cuadrado, Mina and Falcao and millions of Colombians. Together they went to Samara until there was physical boredom. Together, if the group of 10 wants, they could take Colombia very, very high in Russia.

3. Alternatives

The list goes on: without Cristian Zapata was Dávinson – despite the doubts of Saransk – without Yepes was Mina, without Sanchez gave Barrios a great demonstration without Aguilar (temporarily due to an injury) was Mateus Surfer's Tour, before Izquierdo's doubts and James' absence on the left, better meet Muriel. The doubts of preparing the list of 23 have not gone from there or at least not have to spend the expensive bill of disposal. Internal competition is happily devouring. And everything is in favor of Colombia.

4. Wisdom

A fire test for the technician Jose Pekerman was the day after Saransk. This afternoon, where he and his players made all the mistakes allowed in a World Cup, a radical solution had to be found. And he did it: he adjusted the defense with Mina, he gave a vote of confidence to Dávinson, he bet on football to take risks like Quintero vs. The power of the Poles surrounded James and Falcao. He understood that no one was them or us. And that was us. Six points speak to the effectiveness of your wrist. TD has been claimed

5. Mystic

It's hard to describe, but a good summary is the moment when Falcao scored his first World Cup goal: all of his 22 teammates came to him, he felt it like his, it was the hug that they seemed to have waited for a lifetime, like El Tigre. This is what happens in the costumes of Colombia. There is a speech so entrenched in the skin of the players that it supports them in defeats, victories, moments of doubt, anxiety. Always Faith brings them together and their families, who meet every evening at the hotel that they touch to join a collective prayer to ask but, above all, to thank. He does not decide anything but it is one more factor that adds up. Inevitably
