The Colombian team will play its second game in the Copa América USA 2024, this time in the west of the United States, in Phoenix, Arizona, and against a Concacaf team, Costa Rica.
This match is scheduled to take place on Friday, June 28 at the State Farm Stadium, from 5:00 in the afternoon (Colombian time). A victory for Colombia would mean qualification, with one day left, to the quarterfinals of the oldest national team tournament in the world.
Néstor Lorenzo will have a confirmed absence from the eleven players who were first basemen in the 2-1 victory against Paraguay, on Monday, June 24 in Houston, Texas. This is Jhon Lucumí, who was substituted in the 25th minute of the first half, suffering from muscle pain that he felt after suffering a ball hit in his leg. Yerry Mina entered his place, who had an acceptable performance in the Tricolor’s debut.

The Colombian Football Federation has not made official the central defender’s medical report, but unofficially it was known that the injury would be lighter than expected. For now, he will be out for the match against Costa Rica, but this will not force him to be called off, so he could return for the last game of the group stage or for an eventual quarterfinal match. His replacement would be the Bologna player, who occupied his position for a large part of the match against Albirroja.
