With a 2-2 score at the end, the tricolor team might not add its second victory in this tie and left an image that left more worries than certainties ahead of the next duel with Ecuador.

After this vibrant tie, thousands of reactions were made known through social networks and microphones. One of the voices that was heard was that of analyst Carlos Antonio Vélez, who left several criticisms once morest Néstor Lorenzo and specific players.
At the outset, the journalist stated that this match has been “the weakest of the Lorenzo era”, in terms of its approach and development of the game. For Vélez, the Argentine did not ‘recompose’ the game but on the contrary, he “decomposed”, making the team look bad.
Now, the strategist was not the only one who passed through the analyst’s eye. Several references from the starting eleven such as Fabra, of whom he assured that “he is no longer here for these trots”, referring to not being called up once more.

However, beyond the criticism, Vélez also rescued several points in Lorenzo’s eleven. In principle, the analyst highlighted Matheus Uribe, one of the authors of the goals.
He also highlighted the work of John Arias, who was very participatory on the attack front. Finally, he highlighted Luis Díaz for his “fortitude” more than his football.
The blur, the headache
Although Colombia was the first to score, the lack of concentration in the second half made it difficult for Uruguay to take advantage and score.
Despite this, the tricolor went ahead once more and had to keep going, however the sticks and nervousness in the last quarter of the field were the keys to giving life to the rival.
Finally, Colombia had another luxury opportunity at the feet of Luis Díaz, however, anxiety took over the Liverpool man who ended up shooting through the roof.
