BOGOTÁ — Colombia tiene señalada la Copa América en el calendario como una asignatura pendiente. Han pasado 23 años desde su único título continental y en el seno del equipo se ilusionan con repetir la hazaña que consiguieron como anfitriones en 2001. Y razones no le faltan. Con la dirección técnica de Néstor Lorenzo, Colombia hilvana 19 partidos sin conocer la derrota — un hilo de 14 victorias y cinco empates.
Colombia se verá las caras con Paraguay, Costa Rica y Brasil en el Grupo D, en el cual buscará uno de los dos cupos que les permita conseguir el primer objetivo de avanzar a cuartos de final. La principal referencia ofensiva Cafetera será el delantero del Liverpool Luis Díaz, que marcó los dos goles en la victoria conseguida ante Brasil en Barranquilla en noviembre del año pasado.
