CONMEBOL also spoke about Colombia's debut and highlighted the great night the team had at the Azteca Stadium. The Colombian fans turned the Azteca into a yellow tide and demonstrated their unconditional support for the team. The return of the Colombian national team to a World Cup took place after eight years of absence and their return was accompanied by a demonstration of convocation that made Colombia one of the teams with the greatest public appeal in Mexican territory. The key fact is that Colombia won in their debut against Uzbekistan and their fans filled the public spaces and the main stadium of the Mexican capital, to the point of receiving a public congratulations from the FIFA president. The next test of Colombian support will be in Guadalajara, where Néstor Lorenzo's team will face Congo with the possibility of securing their passage to the round of 16. As time goes on, the team will also face Portugal in Miami, another scenario in which a massive presence of Colombian fans is expected. CONMEBOL highlighted that Colombia was one of the two teams in the confederation that added three points in the last matchday along with Argentina. Colombia's best performance in a World Cup took place in 2014, when the team reached the quarterfinals. So, Néstor Lorenzo's team now focuses on continuing to advance in the tournament and making history in the World Cup. But the team knows that they still have a long way to go and that they must continue to work hard to achieve their goals.
