Paraguay vs. Colombia: We have to win, and hopefully by two goals or more in difference. Thus, it would reach 12 points, the same as Argentina has before starting matchday 6.
We tell you: Luis Díaz, as a model: this is what he looks like with the new Colombia shirt, video
Uruguay vs. Bolivia: As difficult as it may seem, it would be ideal for Colombia to there is a tie in Montevideo, or even that the Bolivians win. It seems almost impossible, if you take into account that the Uruguayans have just beaten Brazil and Argentina in their last two games. If the Uruguayans do not win, they will reach a maximum of 11 points and would not surpass the Colombian National Team.
