James Rodríguez has managed to get into a select list of Colombian footballers: those “blessed” who have managed to mark Manchester United, for many the most important team in the history of English football.
The Cucuteño midfielder closes the list that Hamilton Ricard started years ago and through which a couple more footballers have passed. Eye to each case:
Hamilton Ricard (Middlesbourgh)
Back in the 98-99 season of the Premier League (December 19), Ricard guided the victory of his team against what would be European champion a few months later. As a born area nine, the Chocoano received a great assist from the right wing and defined before the watchful eye of the public at Old Trafford.
Hugo Rodallega (Wigan)
It took ten years for a Colombian to celebrate again in front of the ‘Red Devils’. During the 2008-09 season, on matchday 33, Rodallega opened the scoring at 21 minutes with a left foot that left Van der Sar without an option, but then Tevez and Carrick came back.

Camilo Zuñiga (Watford)
This time eight seasons passed to see a new Colombian joy. During the 2016-17 season, Zuñiga entered at 82 minutes and after 60 seconds he scored. A goal identical to that of Ricard, pass back from the right and definition with the goal available. That was the second of Watford’s three goals against United.
James Rodriguez (Everton)
From eight we went to four seasons. In the current 2020-21, James scored the 2-2 set in the 52nd minute with a powerful left foot that left David De Gea with no option. In the end everything would be equalized by 3-3.
