Valderrama “El Pibe” and his message to the players of the Colombian national team

The top reference of the tricolor team ensured that he is ashamed after the two defeats against Uruguay and Ecuador, but encouraged James Rodríguez and company to join and qualify for Qatar 2022.

Carlos ‘El Pibe’ Valderrama, the footballer with the most games played with the Colombian national team, analyzed on his YouTube channel the double day in which the national team fell against Uruguay and Ecuador, for the qualifying rounds for the World Cup of Qatar 2022.

“I am wounded, like all Colombians. 3-0 and 6-1 is a shame, it’s a shame ”, said the legendary captain and number 10 of the national team, about the two consecutive defeats.

However, he added that “this continues and we must move forward. I send a message to the boys, Pa ‘elante. You have already experienced it. And if not, there is always a first time. Now you need to join. The goal, which is the world championship, is there “.

A figure in the national team between 1985 and 1998, ‘El Pibe’ told James Rodríguez and his companions: “We are all ashamed, plus you who are out there tripping. What you need to do is get up, join. When you are on the ground, what you need to do, get up. And you can do it, my brothers ”.

“It’s not easy,” he said of getting out of this crisis, “but not impossible.” “Join as a team, individually they don’t work. Yes, you can, you have to change everything, attitude, character, boldness. There are only four dates. If they join together, they reach the goal
