Colombia, for the top spot in the group
The team led by Carlos Paniagua arrives at the third group match with qualification assured after defeating Australia and Cameroon respectively. In both matches, it was tough, but with substitutions and the coach’s guidance, they managed to achieve the result.
The objective for today is to reach 9 points, advance in first position to face a third-place team in the round of 16, and start the path that leads them to the final stage as planned by the players.
For the match against the Central Americans, the national team does not foresee any modifications and will maintain the lineup that played the last match. Luisa Agudelo, who has kept her goal clear in both matches, will remain in the starting formation, along with Karla Torres, Juana Ortegón, Gabriela Rodríguez, and Linda Caicedo.
“It’s a World Cup, every match is like a final, we have to suffer. In every match we suffer, against Australia we suffered, today too, and against Mexico, it will be the same. We have to suffer and we have to make an effort,” stated Linda Caicedo after the victory against Cameroon.
