They want to move on. The Colombian team wants to forget the defeat against Brazil and think about the match on Tuesday, November 16, against Paraguay. Therefore, in statements to the press, Davinson Sánchez anticipated that the team has three points in its next game to continue dreaming of qualifying for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
“At home, taking out the three games we have and going abroad to look for a result, we will be in the next World Cup”Sánchez answered this Saturday when questioned by the press about Colombia’s calculations for the five remaining dates of the South American tie.
They need to score goals and hope to achieve it against Paraguay, given that they have gone four straight games without scoring. “We have players with great characteristics when it comes to scoring (goals) we simply lacked a bit of luck”, said the Tottenham Hotspur defender.
The coffee growers have fallen 1-0 on their visit to the leader Brazil and, a result that gave the ‘Canarinha’ his pass, but that temporarily removed from the group of four direct qualifiers to the World Cup in Qatar.
Colombia has 16 points and fell to fifth place, which gives way to a playoff against a team from another continent. Behind the ‘coffee growers’ is Chile, which has the same units but better goal difference.
Davinson said he felt “in debt” with the public of Barranquilla for having yielded points at home throughout the qualifier. Even so, he assured that there is “An atmosphere of optimism within the group” ahead of the game against Paraguay.
Wilmar Barrios will not be against Paraguay
Sánchez missed his teammate Wilmar Barrios, suspended for Tuesday. “It will be much, much needed” against the Paraguayans. “It’s going to be tough. It will be something unusual because in the last games Wilmar has been involved “Sánchez pointed out about the absence of the defensive midfielder from Zenit.
