FIFA World Cup 2014: Colombia 23 Man Squad

Colombia have named their 23 man quad ahead of the 2014 World Cup.

Argentine coach, Jose Peckerman has named the 23 men he hopes will help the South American national team out of Group C, in which they compete with Japan, Greece and Ivory Coast.

Colombia’s best ever World Cup was a Round of 16 appearance in Italia ’90, so their fans will be desperately hoping for better in 2014. Their group stage draw does look favourable, though all four sides are capable on their best performances.
