I believe that in the heart, in the head, in the feeling of the Uruguayans there is revenge, there is blood in the eye, there is not the slightest doubt about that. That was raised in the last matches between the Colombia national team
and the Uruguay National Team, which ended with friction, with decisions such as those that determined that many of the players who performed in that Copa América match, in the United States, have been sanctioned. So there are scores to settle, without a doubt, and that is where Colombia has to have great intelligence to not enter that game full of fury. with which Uruguay will surely face the first minutes of the match.
And that is where Colombia has to be supremely intelligent, knowing that having the ball is also a way to counteract the Uruguayans.
The only thing Colombia cannot do is give up its style, its characteristics, what has already been planted in the players. Take great care of the spaces, but understand that at any moment Uruguay can put us against Vargas' goal. So, it is a game to play more with your head.
Regarding some doubts in the starting lineup, I think that above John Durán,
And I say this knowing the coach Néstor Lorenzo, he is going to place Santos Borré.

The principle is to defend yourself well, and when you has a player like Santos Borré
, We all know that he is not so assiduous with the goal in the Colombian National Team, but it allows you to recover many balls up at the start, it is a way to work for the goal. So, having those types of players who immediately pass the line of the ball, who lavish themselves on the field of play, is a priority for Néstor Lorenzo.
Furthermore, Santos Borré is the ideal complement for a player who recovers little as James Rodriguez,
but he has a different role from the others, because James with the ball at his feet is the player who pulls Colombia's strings on offense.
I don't see Durán, I tell you honestly, while James Rodríguez is on the playing field, because Durán doesn't have the ability to come back that, for example, Santos Borré has. So I think Lorenzo is going to lean more towards the Inter Porto Alegre player.
And about the absences, there is a saying that there are players who are like the wind, that is not seen by the average person, but it is very noticeable in the team's performance, and that player is called Jefferson Lerma. There is not the slightest debate about that, and I think it is reaffirmed by the ideal selection of the month of October, with a headline that seems supremely striking to me: he is a tactically essential player on any team, he is a difficult player to replace.
