James Rodriguez was one of the figures of the Colombia selection against Costa Rica, a duel that ended 3-0 and where Luis Díaz, Davinson Sánchez and Jhon Córdoba scored.
Throughout the match, the ball went through James, who once again had an excellent performance and in his 72 minutes on the field he once again amazed the fans who went this time to State Farm Stadium, who applauded him when he left the field.
James was key in Córdoba’s goal as he made an excellent assist for the striker to later break Patrick Sequeira’s goal, who could do little about the Krasnodar player’s shot.
Well, with this assist to the National Team’s forward, James rose to the level of Carlos ‘The Kid’ Valderrama and equaled him in an item in which the Colombian ’10’s stand out in Copa América.
And according to data from ‘Misterchip’, James is the first player to provide three assists in a single edition of the Cup, something that ‘El Pibe’ already did in the 1987 Cup.
With this said, James has before Brazil or later the possibility of achieving an unprecedented mark that would leave him in the history of the National Team’s marks in this tournament.
