Colombia vs. USA.
The United States created the best chances in the first half, and there Montero was confident, avoiding the goal on two occasions, with good saves.
The second part was flat, both teams moved their benches, took the opportunity to look at other players, to refresh the rosters, but intensity as such, there was no more; Aggression, neither.
The steering wheel Yilmar Velasquez, from Pereira, He was the one who guided the team in a permanent round trip, with power and a great panorama of the field. He left a very pleasant presentation.
Collectively, Colombia tried to maintain an idea of control with quick transitions, without much output on the wings, they missed more of Fabra’s presence. In defence, the team suffered when the Americans attacked with speed or through through passes, and on the wing. The Llinás-Pérez center-back pair did not clash.
