Colombia sucks (futbol)

As sad as it is Colombia didnt deserve to win the Gold Cup, throughout the whole tournament they slacked off or were way too cocky. Most of the players seemed way too drowsy and slow out there, everybody wanted to be the hero and tried to score when it could of gone better had they used better teamwork. I guess they thought just by putting on the jersey they were gonna win; and wtf can Mondragon cover anything, Penedo was covering shots like his life depended on it.I was rooting for Colombia from the beg. till the end ( i thought they were gonna come back ). If they wanna have a shot at getting to Germany they better bring their A game. BTW im rooting por los estados they showed a lot of class last game by not playing dirty like the catrachos , and they didnt bitch when the arbitro would turn a blind eye to all the things that happened.Had to blow off some steam.

remember we need to remember that colombia did not have hardly any of their players. i was satisfied with the way colombia performed the other night. yes they lost and it always sucks to see them loose. but hey, look who was on the field. almost a totally new generation of players. i thought after the first two very bad games they really picked it up and showed some class and love for the shirt. if you think about it panama, honduras , usa ext have all their big stars.. colombia and mexico were really the only ones who came with alternate squads.. colombia played a good game against panama and deserved the victory. one goal was taken away from them which would have definitely changed the whol outcome of the game. i am not the type to sit here and make excuses for our seleccion but hey, you have to give credit where it is due. i believe they deserve to come home with their heads held high and we should recieve them with enthusiasm. its only going to get better coming up against uruguay, chile, and paraguay. we need to be their for them at all times... rueda has done a fenominal job. i assure you colombia will be in germany to dispute the world cup.

tressor another note is i definitely think and strongly believe we have found our new number 10. tressor is an extraordinary player.he has an unbelievable ability to conduct the ball and his passes are precise, at the sametime always remaining an offensive threat. i have watched him since he started out with the u 20 in toulon . he is world class , and one can only wait to see what he will do once integrated once again with all the rest of colombia's stars.. he definitely proved himself this tournament creating soo many chances for our fowards. to bad they could not capitalize on the majority of the chances.. definitely world class ..

I agree with Kikiortiz And this is exactly why I think these stupid cups are a big waste of time. There is only one big dance, and that is the world cup. All this other stuff is just a bunch of nonsense. The author of this thread, like many others, clearly did not recognize that this was not their main squad. It was more like their "B"squad as opposed to their A squad.

I listen to all these Mexicans here in Chicago saying the same thing.Then I think, didn't these idiots watch the game and didnt'they see that the big names and big guns were absen from the game??

There is only one cup that counts, one big dance, and that is the one that is going to take place a little less than a year from now i Germany. I would not atach much significance to these interum matches.
