Colombia's Soccer Team


Sorry, but had to begin this journey in a good mood.

A real soccer icon, Carlos Alberto Valderrama is without a doubt Colombia's most popular former footballer, who started his long career at Unión Magdalena in 1981. The midfielder led the national team at three World Cups (1990 to 1998) and represented teams as Millonarios, Deportivo Cali, Nacional de Medellín, Junior and Tampa Bay. He retired from professional football in 2002, when playing for the Colorado Rapids. Rather than his flamboyant playing style you could easily recognise his unique hairstyle...

Saturday 6th of June: Colombia play Argentina in a crucial World Cup qualifier. And all you hear about is when they beat Argentina 5-0 in their own ground and celebrations went on for days. Hoping for a memorable 'doblete'.
