In their last appearance, on July 7, Colombia tied 0-0 with Switzerland. In the last 5 games, Colombia has a record of 3 wins and 2 draws. James Rodríguez reappeared on social media after a month and a half of silence to express his support for the earthquake victims who hit Colombia on August 10, 2026. "It's been 24 hours since the strong earthquake that surprised my country. The situation is devastating and sad; it fills me with impotence to see the damage and the affected people", said the captain of the Colombia team. James considers that "the force of nature escapes all understanding, but it does leave us a message: to get up from the most difficult moments depends on ourselves, of giving each other a hand to continue and of thanking for life and the opportunity to breathe". James Rodríguez reactivated his social media presence in an extraordinary situation. His last official publication was on July 4, just after Colombia had qualified for the quarterfinals after beating Ghana in Kansas City. Until now, the only 'clues' of his whereabouts had come out through friends' posts. In July, for example, he shaved his head and was on vacation away from the media. At the same time, it was confirmed that he had left Minnesota United. The American team confirmed the end of his contract and separation after only six months of working together in the MLS. James Rodríguez is without a team, while the main leagues in the world are about to start. ## What's next for James Rodríguez? ## Why is James Rodríguez's support for the earthquake victims important? ## What message does James Rodríguez send to the community?
