Mojica responds to critics of Colombia: 'We only received one goal...we didn't lose'

The elimination of Colombia from the World Cup has generated much controversy and criticism towards the team. However, Johan Mojica, one of the most criticized players, has responded to the critics, assuring that the team made a good presentation in the tournament.

The Governorate of the Cauca Valley, led by Governor Dilian Francisca Toro, awarded a decoration to four players of the Colombia National Team for having been in the World Cup: Johan Mojica, Davinson Sánchez, Gustavo Puerta and Juan Camilo Portilla. This act was also highly criticized, as many did not understand why the recognition was given.

Mojica went further and referred to the team's performance in the World Cup, assuring that they made a good presentation: “We went out on penalties, but we are a team that, with everything we play, only receive one goal. We didn't lose, we won and drew, that says a lot about the progress that the team has had”, he stated.

Mojica supports the process Lorenzo

The elimination of Colombia from the World Cup also raised questions about the continuity of Néstor Lorenzo as coach of the team. Although he has a contract until December 2026, some demand a change of quality and a change that will lead the team to win titles in the next years. However, Mojica supports that it be the Argentine who continues to lead the project.

“That he stays many more years... is an excellent coach. For me, he stays many years because he knows how to work, not only in the sports but also in the human, that's why he is an excellent coach and his technical staff”, he replied.
