At just 33 years old, James, like very few others, can say that he has jumped from country to country, leaving artistic touches with his magical left leg that turns into a glove when it comes to assisting or placing the ball in the net.
Today all of Colombia idolizes him, but there are many who have had to swallow their words because on several occasions they criticized him mercilessly, with venom in their comments they retired him from football and even with stronger words they told him to hang up his boots.
The team’s leader silently endured all kinds of insults and criticism. They did not allow him to have an injury, a mediocre game or any false start that any mortal might have.
They always attacked him so that he would have something to talk regarding with far-fetched football technicalities in the Olympus of supposed Gods of journalism where they give themselves the license to create idols and in the same way destroy them without compassion.
This Cucuteño began putting stamps in his passport at a very young age when he traveled to Argentina, Portugal, Rome, Spain, Germany, England, Arabia, Turkey and finally to Brazil where he also owed a certain Luis Zubeldia from Argentina who has not beaten anyone.
In a country with no memory like ours, it is insignificant to be the golden boot of a World Cup, to win a Puskas award for the best goal in Brazil 2014, to be nominated several times for the Golden Ball or, why not, to have countless international titles.
But hey, today everyone is riding the victory bus and speaking wonders of James; Zinedine Zidane, Rafa Benitez and detractor journalists also want to embrace the captain who has drawn a smile of hope on the faces of Colombians who never lost faith in this golden left-footer, Mr. James David Rodriguez Rubio. The Captain, who shut the mouths of many
