This is how Colombia arrives

Colombia achieved a historic qualification to the quarterfinals of the Women’s World Cup after defeating Jamaica 1-0 on Tuesday, a team that had not conceded a goal in the tournament, while France thrashed Morocco 4-0 to advance to the round.

The Europeans will face co-hosts Australia in the quarterfinals, while the South Americans will try to make history against England.

It is the first time that Colombia has reached the third round in a major women’s soccer tournament, and now it will face England, a favorite to lift the cup, next Saturday in Sydney.

The Colombian attacker Catalina Usme scored the first and last goal that Jamaica conceded in this World Cup at minute 51, after receiving a cross from the youngster Ana María Guzmán, triggering an outburst of joy in the stands of the Rectangular Stadium in Melbourne.

Colombia is the only Conmebol team still alive in the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, and Jamaica was the last Concacaf team in the tournament.

“It is a patriotic pride, a regional pride, it is knowing that we are worthy representatives of Colombia, of South America, we remain as the team that represents America and that is pleasant for us as a coaching staff,” said coach Nelson Abadía.

Jamaica’s “Reggae Girlz” kicked off with a more daring game, with pressure on the Colombian output and ball handling from the portly captain Khadija Shaw.

But after about 15 minutes of Jamaican hegemony, the Colombians took control of the actions, with runs by Mayra Ramírez and Linda Caicedo on the wings and control by Leicy Santos in midfield, looking for scoring opportunities for the “Powerpuff Girls”. .

Despite the difficulties in dealing with the physical game of the Jamaicans, the Colombian team managed to change the situation in the second half.

World Cup rookie Ana María Guzmán crossed for Usme, who received with mastery and overcame the resistance of the Caribbean goalkeeper Rebecca Spencer.

“I only saw that the ball was coming, I dominated it in the best way and it stayed for me to score,” Usme recalled at a press conference.

Colombia maintained control and returned to look for the goal in Caicedo’s talented plays that did not crystallize.

The Jamaicans also reinforced their arrivals in the Colombian area, and the best chance for the Caribbean came at minute 83 on a header from midfielder Drew Spence that went wide.

Jamaica’s coach, Lorne Donaldson, acknowledged that “Colombia played better, they deserved to win.”

Regarding next Saturday’s duel, Abadía admitted that “England is one of the favourites, it is the European champion. But we still face Germany wisely, with the integrity of our game and our footballers”, recalled Abadía about the 2-1 victory in the group stage against the Germans.

This is how England comes

European champion England qualified on Monday for the quarterfinals of the Women’s World Cup, after beating Nigeria in a penalty shootout (4-2) in Brisbane, Australia.

Tied 0-0 after regulation time and extra time, the match was decided in a penalty shootout, in which Nigeria missed two decisive shots, in the match played in Brisbane in front of 50,000 spectators.

“It’s the team, this team is special. We did it in the Eurocup, we did it in the Finalissima, we keep pushing and there are things to come for this team,” Chloe Kelly told the BBC after the match.

The English will face the winning team of the match between Colombia and Jamaica in the quarterfinals, which will take place on Tuesday in Brisbane.

The Nigerians, with one more player throughout extra time due to the expulsion of England’s Lauren James at minute 87, dominated the actions for most of the game, but failed to translate that hegemony into goals.

James, one of England’s main attacking players, left his team decimated after trampling an opponent late in regulation and will miss Saturday’s quarter-final match.

England began the penalty shootout with a deflected shot from Georgia Stanway, but Desire Oparanozie also missed Nigeria’s first charge.

Beth England hit her shot for England and Nigerian Michelle Alozie sent her shot over the crossbar, giving the Europeans the lead who held on until Chloe Kelly’s final charge.

‘The Lionesses’, who last year won the European championship, were favorites to comfortably beat the Africans, number 40 in the FIFA world ranking, but they turned out to be a more difficult opponent than expected.

“The first thing is that we really stuck together as a team,” England manager Sarina Wiegman said after the win.

“It was a very, very difficult match, and then we got the red card, but we made it through extra time and then we won on penalties,” he added.

“The way we did it and the way the team kept playing, I’m very proud of them,” Wiegman said.

The Nigerians confirmed that they were in a position to play equally against any rival in the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

In the group stage they defeated hosts Australia 3-2, thanks to their quick transitions.

They used the same tactic against England, whose rear guard was repeatedly surprised by the Nigerian attack.

“Coming here and playing the way they did tonight, I think we were just as good” as England, Nigeria manager Randy Waldrum said.

“We had opportunities to achieve the result and unfortunately we did not achieve it,” deplored the coach of American nationality.

Statements by the DT of the Colombian National Team

With their victory over Jamaica on Tuesday, Colombia became the last representative of the American continent in the Women’s World Cup, something that fills their coach, Nelson Abadía, with pride.

“It is a patriotic pride, a regional pride, it is knowing that we are worthy representatives of Colombia, of South America, we remain as the team that represents America and that is pleasant for us as a coaching staff,” said Abadía.

“It’s not to be presumptuous, but we are the coaching staff that is representing all of America,” he added, visibly proud of his team’s qualification to the quarterfinals.

Jamaica was precisely the last representative of an American country, apart from Colombia, in the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, after the surprise elimination of favorites like the United States, Brazil and Canada.

“We knew what Jamaica had, we knew where to counteract, we knew the spaces they could give us and their strengths in terms of attack,” Abadía said of his rival on Tuesday.

His Jamaican colleague, Lorne Donaldson, conceded that the coffee pots were superior to his “Reggae Girlz.”

“Colombia played better, they deserved to win,” admitted Donaldson. “We played hard, we had a good campaign (at the World Cup). Nobody likes to lose but they managed to leave us out, it’s over.”

Colombia will face England next Saturday in the quarterfinals, designated as one of the favorites to lift the cup in the World Cup.

“England is one of the favourites, it is the European champion. But we still face Germany wisely, with the integrity of our game and our footballers”, recalled Abadía about the 2-1 victory in the group stage against the Germans.

“This is how we are going to face England,” he added.
