Falcao’s lament after the fall of Colombia: “We are left in complicated conditions”:

Colombia stumbled again in the Qualifiers and, for now, is far from qualifying for Qatar 2022. In a new discreet presentation, the “Tricolor” lost (1-0) this Tuesday at the hands of Argentina at the Mario Alberto Kempes Stadium. After the meeting, Radamel Falcao referred to the difficult panorama of his national team.

“Very reduced (the chances of going to the World Cup), we are left in difficult conditions. If we didn’t score in Argentina, the chances of qualifying diminished considerably”pointed out the ‘Tiger’ at a press conference.

On the other hand, the current Rayo Vallecano striker referred to the instructions given by coach Reinaldo Rueda: “The coach wanted us to keep the zero, that we would gain more confidence. We wanted to find the counterattack because Argentina was going to leave spaces. They score the goal and the match was more difficult for us”.

Falcao, who has barely scored one goal in ten matches with Colombia in this edition of the Qualifiers, also lamented the ineffectiveness of the ‘Tricolor’, which has not scored for six games.

“We were facing a very good team, which behaves well. We knew that scoring options were not going to be generated like in the previous game. They had it and wrote it down.”commented.

The ‘Albiceleste’ is still strong

The classified Argentina team extended its undefeated streak to 29 games, despite the absence of star Lionel Messi, and left Colombia on the brink of qualifying for the World Cup in Qatar, beating them 1-0 in the city of Córdoba ( center).

The ‘Albiceleste’ prevailed on Tuesday with authority with a goal from Lautaro Martínez, at 29 minutes, before almost 50,000 fans at the Mario Kempes stadium in the city of Córdoba, on date 16, when there are only two days left for the closing of the series.
