Venezuela scored against Colombia in the CONMEBOL qualifiers | Colombia Choice

Colombia has already put aside the match against Bolivia and all the complications of the previous dates. In the minds of the tricolor players, there is only one goal, which is to beat Venezuela at home, to survive and to look forward to the playoffs, which depend not only on the three points, but on a series of results that allow those points to be dreamed of. Slowly.

Venezuela plays a separate game, so it represents leaving the three colors without going to the World Cup in Qatar, the geographical proximity and history that both countries share.

In terms of qualifying, Colombia and Venezuela have faced each other 17 times, with a large margin for the tricolor. However, matches played in the Red Wine region say something else, as there is a debt hanging over the tricolor, which they play against, before the final whistle at Kashamai Stadium.

On Venezuelan soil, eight commitments were played on the way to the World Cup. Of which two won red wine, five equalities and one victory for the tricolor, which complicates everything, it is the only result for Colombia if it wants to continue in the race against Qatar.

That match was identical to Road to France 1998, with a score of 0 to 2, with annotations by Bermudez and Valenciano. Colombia will have to break the harsh statistics, because the victory will help them in the illusion, as well as waiting for a positive result from Paraguay.
