It's crazy that's a country as small as Uruguay has so many really good footballers. As a Yank I'd probably be rooting for them as an underdog if it wasn't for that detestable piece of crap Suarez. Instead I shall always hope they lose.

Awe, your words mean a lot. As a Colombian it is always gratifying to know that we can attract fans to our National team, which makes us so proud. In Colombia it is either football or cycling the sports that tend to bring our nation together as one. We are also as proud when players get to play in big historic clubs like Everton. However I must warn you that our National team can be as disappointing as Everton at times, just when we get our hopes up and think we are going to win something then they fail us. That has been our history. We certainly have amazing players right now so I'm hoping for the best but like every Evertonian knows hope can only take one so far.
I feel very fortunate to have found this Forum. I was told there is say here that "We are chosen, we do not choose" to be here. I'm so happy to have been chosen by the Everton gods for I feel like a I have found a new home, and I am here to stay even after the lovely James and Mina depart.

Yeah to me, the best football nation in the world. So much top tier talent for such a small country.

Then I guess you know best and hopefully will be rooting for us
I thought you guys had a solid chance at winning that 2014 World Cup until Falcao went down. He was really close to the best striker in the world at that point iirc. A mate of mine and I were talking about it when we heard, such a shame that it happened when it did. Pretty much "ended" his career too.Then I guess you know best and hopefully will be rooting for us

Yes. ACL at that age was pretty much a wrap for him.
Top professional and human being the guy. That world cup was so fun. I was deployed but watched every game.
Russia I was there for. Every Colombia game was a home game.
I cannot WAAAAAIT for the 2026 World Cup here in the States. I'm probably going to take off 2 weeks and just try to hit up as many games as possible.

Yes although I feel that this wc will be more expensive than the international ones despite of the long traveling. Everything was so cheap in Russia. Food, beer. Uber's, etc.
Here, in our own backyard, gonna be pricey.
My city has the highest average cost of a pint in the nation. I went to the first International Champions Cup whatever it was called back about 7-8 years ago at Giants Stadium and it cost me $14 to have a Goose Island IPA. Yeah...it's gonna hurt lol

We also had great hopes. Falcao's injury was a big blow but because of it James ended up shining there, it was him who make it worth even if we didn't win it. He scored a beautiful goal at that WC against Uruguay

2018 wc was a heartbreak for me.
We just had to beat England and we had a clear path to at least the semis. Instead of playing our game, we treated England like a world superpower and played 3 DMs. Terrible man.
