James Rodríguez is set for his World Cup farewell after being named in Colombia’s official 26-man roster for the tournament.
The king of 2014 is back for one final dance. Colombia has officially announced its 26-man roster for the upcoming World Cup, and legendary playmaker James Rodríguez is set to captain the side on the sport’s grandest stage.
Rodríguez famously became a global sensation twelve years ago in Brazil. During that magical 2014 run, his spectacular six-goal haul secured him the Golden Boot, highlighted by an unforgettable, iconic volley against Uruguay that propelled Los Cafeteros to the quarter-finals.
Now, under the guidance of manager Néstor Lorenzo, a revitalized Colombian team is determined to build on their recent success as Copa América runners-up.
The South American giants are ready to navigate Group K fixtures against Uzbekistan, DR Congo, and Portugal.
