Colombia and Argentina, the last two Latin American teams standing, meet in Santiago for a ticket to the grand final of the U-20 World Cup being held in Chile. The Tricolor does not have its scorer and author of the hat-trick against Spain in the quarterfinals, Neiser Villarreal, due to an accumulation of cards, while the albiceleste loses Maher Carrizo and Valente Pierani, starters in the eleven that made it to the semifinals against Mexico.
Colombia has never reached the final of a world men’s soccer tournament, in any category. It seeks to break that ceiling this afternoon, when those led by César Torres take to the field of the National Stadium of Chile after the emotional boost that meant leaving Spain, one of the favorites to win the title, on the way.
