At FIFA, age is synonymous with experience, knowledge, it is a virtue rather than an obstacle.
That is why his balance of the first day of the Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifiers in South America has to do with the validity of those who have played the tournament more times, which many describe as the most difficult in the world.
In the official portal they dedicate a chapter to Colombia and, specifically, to Falcao and James. He says of the first that he had a “double resurrection”, in a text entitled ‘The old guard keeps giving war’.
“Radamel Falcao had not scored with the Colombian national team since June 2019 and was left blank in the Copa América. For his part, James Rodríguez spent a very delicate 2019/2020 season at Real Madrid, since he only played 14 games counting all competitions “, says the entity.
“Against Venezuela and Chile, the two leaders of the Cafeteros recovered their lost vigor. The first scored a decisive goal in the 91st minute of the match against Chile, allowing their team to start an important draw away from home. The second made their selection he took advantage of his excellent form with Everton, dictating the rhythm of the game in both games, “he says.
The presentations of Neymar, young but with many battles alongside Brazil, stand out in the same way, the last one with a triplet against Peru for which FIFA says it was the “most complete” performance; in addition to Luis Suárez’s goals with Uruguay and pride despite the defeat against Ecuador; Alexis Sánchez’s goal against Colombia for his Chilean team and, of course, Lionel Messi’s leadership for Argentina to beat Bolivia in La Paz.
