Colombia did the task on the last date of the South American Qualifiers heading to Qatar 2022, defeating Venezuela by the slightest difference, however, its poor performance throughout the championship forced it to rely on a poor result from Peru against Paraguay to qualify for the repechage against a team of the Asian Football Confederation.
Although fans are aware that the seven games without scoring a goal had a negative impact on the aspirations of the 'tricolor' team, there are some people who have fallen responsibility on social networks and these were not necessarily the ones who lined up in the matches.
The first are Ramón Jesurún and Álvaro González Álzate, president and vice president of the Colombian Football Federation, respectively, and who were absent during the match against Venezuela, as they were boarding a plane bound for Qatar to be present in the draw for the world cup, despite the fact that the national team did not get the classification.
Journalists and social media users agreed on this pair of names as big people responsible for the elimination. Recalling cases such as the resale of ticket offices for which they were sanctioned by the Superintendency of Industry and Commerce as natural persons but the payment of these came from the FCF's accounts.
They were also the ones who chose to leave the Colombia team with Arturo Reyes as interim coach for approximately six months after the departure of Carlos Queiroz to later welcome Reinaldo Rueda. In addition, social media users say that leaders are more concerned with self-profit than with bringing development to national teams in their different categories.
On the other hand, he points against Reinaldo Rueda because in several matches he looked confused with his lineups and is blamed for failing to consolidate a starting roster during the 22 matches he led the national team since he took over as coach. His performance was 46.7%, winning seven wins, drawing 10 games and falling in five.
Rueda also commented that his continuity in the team depends on the board of directors of the Colombian Football Federation (FCF). “Our contract was subject to classification. Managers are the ones to analyze,” he said.
As for some changes during the match against Venezuela, one of them that of James Rodriguez, the coach added that it was to give them rest after what was done not only during this match, but also in the victory over Bolivia.
“We always wanted to refresh what the other players had done. All the selections had changes due to different factors. You always want to place the best 11 on the court,” he said. He added: “Like all games, there was a very high intensity and the excitement of continuing on the road.”
