Amantes de la pecosa. Colombia está obligada a ganar : El crítico análisis de Esteban Jaramillo

Abstract

In this interview, journalist Esteban Jaramillo provides a vehement and critical analysis of the Colombian national team's participation in the Copa América Centenario. Jaramillo rejects complacency with third place, arguing that the team has the ability and the obligation to win. He criticizes the team's collective performance, pointing to a lack of offensive playmaking and the poor individual performance of key figures such as James Rodríguez, Juan Cuadrado, and Edwin Cardona. While he respects coach José Pékerman, he attributes responsibility to him for the team's tactical shortcomings. The conversation extends to topics such as the national team's superiority in the 1990s, the strategies of European coaches such as Guardiola and Mourinho, and his skepticism about the tournament's prizes and ideal teams, which he considers commercial.
