Lorenzo Surprises
Among the big surprises of the call for the Colombian National Team is the forward Miguel Ángel Borja, who earned a place on the list with goals in River Plate of Argentina.
A similar situation exists for midfielder Sebastián Gómez, who has shone with a good performance at Coritiba in Brazil and earned the stripes to be in the group. It remains to be seen if he will travel with the 26 called up to the United States.
