The analyst had good words with the Colombian midfielder after the victory against Paraguay.
The Colombia selection added his first three points after beating Paraguay in his debut in the Copa America 2024a duel that brings the national team’s qualification to the quarterfinals closer.
It was not a comfortable debut for Colombia, which had several passages in the game where Paraguay was much better in attack, but Néstor Lorenzo’s team won thanks to its purposeful game that we are already accustomed to and also to a James Rodriguez brilliant who gave two assists in the game.
The midfielder, in addition to being key in both goals, had an outstanding game during the defensive phase, which left him as the best player of the match by far.
Well, after what was done by Colombia, Carlos Antonio Velez He left his usual opinion on his X account and what no one expected happened when the analyst surrendered to the Colombian ’10’.
“Today it is deserved and true, James was the figure of the game in which Colombia won well. He had a pale mini again that they took advantage of just for the discount. Colombia was more and never suffered in the game,” he said at the outset.
And he added: “James’s thing is not just because of the assists, that is from his repertoire, it is because of the help and the mark that he rarely (and fortunately) contributed today. It will always be easier if everyone plays and everyone works. “We are on the right path!”
Finally, he criticized the changes made by Lorenzo to maintain the result: “If Lerma was changed due to fatigue, Castaño and Ríos Uribe should have entered to remain solid. Lorenzo was wrong. He was in the budget and it was met.”
