To the rhythm of James Rodríguez! Colombia got among the eight best teams in the World Cup and has its best campaign in the World Cups. The Colombian National Team defeated Uruguay 2-0 in the mythical Maracana and begins to write its own history by reaching the quarterfinals.
History did not weigh on Uruguay who could not face the mobility of Colombian soccer that had in its ’10’, only 22 years old, its inspiring genius.
In the 28th minute, James Rodríguez scored what, to date, is the best goal of the World Cup, after stopping the ball with his chest on the edge of the area and, from a volley, hooking a shot that slipped into Fernando Muslera’s goal , after hitting the crossbar.
At 49 minutes, James Rodríguez scored for the second time in the game after a good pivot by another of the Colombian figures, Juan Guillermo Cuadrado.
This is how our celebrities celebrate on the networks:
