Colombia is waiting for who will be the coach. The refusal of Pékerman to continue at the head of the bench has left a logical gap between the fans, but when football returns, everything changes. Under the direction of Arturo Reyes, the National Team played its first commitment in the midst of a strange environment. It was the first match after the World Cup, since Pékerman was no longer there and, as if that were not enough, there were players like James or Yerry Mina, two of the team's cracks, among others.
But soccer is very big and everything changes quickly. Before Venezuela, there was a protagonist above all and that is none other than Juan Fernando Quintero. The one of River Plate assumed the gallons before the absence of James and it was elevated in the owner of the encounter. His intelligence decided how the duel should go and his talent did the rest.
He was the best, proving that at 25 he is already an indisputable piece in this team. It does not matter who is finally the coach. The game is about the players and there Quintero becomes immense, as he showed in the World Cup in Russia.
There are few selections that can bring together in a starting lineup players from the level of Quintero or James. The two breathe football and, before Venezuela, the former made it clear once again that he is ready to carry the weight of Colombia. Now it is necessary that the Federation succeed in the election of a technician who knows how to get the most out of these great talents. Raw material, of course, there is plenty to spare. Football, without a doubt, is Quintero.
