Colombia does not have a record of playing many friendlies against Spain. They first met in 1981 in a friendly match. The first was a 1-1 draw. Then in 2022, Colombia lost 1-0 in the second friendly match. 2-2 draw in the third friendly match in 2017.
However, the country in the South American region made history on Friday night. They beat Spain 1-0 in London. It was their first win against the 2010 World Champions. Not only that, it was their fifth win in a row. With this, Lorenzo's disciples remained undefeated in 18 consecutive matches.
On the other hand, Spain tasted its first defeat in the last 365 days. Ahead of Euro 2024, coach Luis de la Fuente is preparing the team for the fight with several good players including Rodry, Dani Carvajal and Alvaro Morata.
In the first half of the day, both teams rested their star players and formed the XI. Both teams made a number of changes after the break, but Colombia entered the field with a full strength team. Real's former star Hashem Rodriguez also entered the field. Luis Diaz was on the offensive side. The two of them disrupted the Spanish defence.
Center back Dani Vivian made his debut for Spain in this match. Colombia has to get a lot of speed to stop him.
Colombia's Diaz was unstoppable on the left wing. He created several great chances. Which his teammates spoil.
However, Colombia went ahead after 61 minutes. At this time, Diaz crossed the ball to the right. Daniel Munoz scored with an acrobatic shot after jumping quite a bit.
After getting the goal, Colombia started to play more energetically. One after another, opportunities are created by spreading influence. But they could not reach the net. On the other hand, Spain could not repay this goal in the rest of the time. Colombia left the field with happy memories of their first win against La Rosa.
