Cup. Everyone in Colombia was happy and excited to see Colombia other time in this event since
1998. Everyone expected a good presentation from our national team because everyone
remembered that in 1998 it was a total failure. We believed in this team because it seemed to be
an stronger team with a confident manager like Pekerman. Our qualifying group was a total
success because it was an easy group were our team won all of the three matches.
At that time the team seemed to be really strong because of our manager that make his
players to relax and rest a lot, that make them practice a lot for the next matches and make them
have a good physical condition for the rest of the tournament. Our next match was a tough
opponent, Uruguay that we know them so much but we had James that was in good form and
made one of the most beautiful goals in the year and with his magic we passed at the quarter finals
. This was the most important match in Colombia history but this time Colombia seemed to be
really nervous so they were playing not so well and at the end of the match the hashtag
Eragoldeyepes was invented.
In my opinion, this was one of my best memories of 2014 because it was the first time I saw
my national soccer team in such a big event and most of all in a good way. This would be
unforgettable for me because I have seen the best soccer moments of Colombia in all his history.
Sadly, I didn't like how Colombia got out of this cup because it was a complete theft made by Brasil
but then I liked so much how Germany won against Brazil because I like teams that won cups with
merit and not by stealing. To conclude, I am a big soccer fan and this was a ver special moment for
me that would be unforgettable.
