哥倫比亞
How they qualified Second behind Argentina, clinching their spot by coming back from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 against Chile. World Cup high Even their best effort, the last 16 in 1990, ended in calamity when Roger Milla robbed Rene Higuita and scored into an empty net. World Cup low Hard to imagine a bigger disaster than USA ’94, where they started as one of the favourites and ended up eliminated in the first round, with their captain shot dead. Familiar faces Falcao and James Rodriguez (Monaco) The manager Jose Pekerman, Argentina’s manager in 2006, used to be a taxi driver, so he may not want to go north of the Amazon at this time of night. How in danger is he? 3/10 Most likely to light up Brazil Obviously Falcao, but Jackson Martinez will be a threat if he can reproduce his goalscoring form for Porto. Most likely to be sent home in disgrace Cristian Zapata. Given his first chance under new coach Pekerman, Zapata marked the occasion by brawling with Gonzalo Higuain and getting sent off. Title odds: 25/1 The stereotype is … Unbelievably gifted, slightly unhinged players who can rip you apart if they haven’t been paid off by a drug kingpin first. The reality is ... Unbelievably gifted, slightly unhinged players who can rip you apart going forward but occasionally look a bit doddery at the back. What are they known for? Coffee beans 42 per cent Their other main export crop 25 per cent Shakira 22 per cent Higuita’s scorpion kick 11 per cent How Brazilian are they? In terms of raw, unvarnished talent, they stand comparison with the Brazil of old. In terms of messing up World Cups, they stand comparison with the Brazil of new. How Google translates the national anthem “The virgin her hairs starts in agony, widow and his love cypress hangs. Regretting her hope covering cold headstone but glorious pride her fair complexion.” Duration Eleven verses with choruses. No word on whether Don McLean was involved. How to dress like their fans Big tall hats in the country’s yellow, blue and red colours. Carlos Valderrama wigs also go down well. Commentator's go-to stat Because of its position on the equator, Colombia does not have seasons. But then what do they call their transfer windows? |
出線之路 世界杯南美賽區預選賽上,哥倫比亞隊在0:3落后的不利局勢下,最后3:3戰平智利,在積分榜上僅次于阿根廷。 世界杯高光時刻 1990年,哥倫比亞隊憑借自身的努力挺進16強。但最終在復賽中門將雷內·伊基塔(Rene Higuita)沒防住羅杰·米拉(Rene Higuita)的進球,負于麥卡隆隊,未能更進一步。 世界杯低谷時刻 1994年美國世界杯,哥倫比亞隊經歷前所未有的災難,比賽時被寄予厚望,然而在第一輪就被淘汰,主力后衛回國后竟然慘遭槍殺。 知名球員 法爾考和詹姆斯·羅德里格斯(James Rodriguez) 主教練 何塞·佩克爾曼(Jose Pekerman),2006年曾是阿根廷國家隊主教練,曾是一名出租車司機,因此他可能不愿意在此刻回到亞馬遜河以北。 他的下課概率? 3/10 最可能大放異彩的球員 當然是法爾考,但假如前衛杰克遜·馬丁內斯(Jackson Martinez)能復制在波爾圖的輝煌戰績,那么他也有可能成為引爆巴西的人物。 最可能被遣送回國的球員 克里斯蒂安·薩帕塔(Cristian Zapata),佩爾克曼剛在哥倫比亞隊執教,帕薩塔就因與阿根廷中衛岡薩洛·伊瓜因(Gonzalo Higuain)爭吵而被罰下場。 奪冠幾率:1/25 固有印象 哥倫比亞球員有驚人的天賦,賽場上有點精神錯亂,假如賽前不吃點藥的話,幾乎要對著觀眾發瘋了。 實際情況 哥倫比亞球員有驚人的天賦,賽場上有點精神錯亂,幾乎要對著觀眾發瘋,但有時動作緩慢。 哪些聞名于世? 咖啡豆 42% 其他主要出口作物 25% 歌手夏奇拉 22% 伊基塔的“蝎子擺尾” 11% 與巴西隊的對比 在天分上,哥倫比亞隊可與巴西隊分庭抗禮。但在世界杯的表現上,他們還是太嫩了。 谷歌翻譯的哥倫比亞共和國國歌 “她的秀發光彩照人,失去愛人,她陷于極大的苦痛之中,但是對他的愛像松柏一樣永不凋零。她在墓碑之上哀嘆愛的希望,那美麗的秀發,飄揚成永不褪色的光榮?!?/p> 國歌時長 共有11段詩與合唱。唐·麥克林(Don McLean )是否參與了創作,還不得而知。 哥倫比亞隊球迷的打扮 黃、藍、紅相間的大高帽,卡洛斯·巴爾德拉馬(Carlos Valderrama)的假發也很受歡迎。 解說員的評價 由于地處赤道附近,哥倫比亞并沒有四季之分。那他們對轉會窗口是怎么稱呼的呢? |
