The squad will convene for training camp on Sunday. [x]
Interviews with Armero and Yepes from training yesterday, along with footage of Fredy being a complete maniac during a friendly game of keep-away.
El Heraldo ran a short interview with Perea this morning in which he expresses the usual confidence about the state of the team, but is also careful to point out that it’s the results that matter, not how good the team think they are. Additionally, while he says the team’s general system isn’t very different than it was under Bolillo, Peckerman gets credit for asking them to play more directly, an approach that Perea says has made Colombia’s attack more effective.
In a match played behind closed doors yesterday, Colombia demolish Guyana 7-1 (there’s some disagreement about the score and the scorers, but I’m going with the official site account). Goals were scored by: James, Fredy, Jackson (2) and Muriel (2), in addition to a Guyana OG.
Starters were similar to those against Sante Fe, with the exceptions of Zúñiga for Cuadrado and Ramos, who just arrived in camp, for Mejía:
David Ospina; Camilo Zúñiga, Aquivaldo Mosquera, Mario Yepes y Pablo Armero; Adrián Ramos, Carlos Sánchez, Fredy Guarín y James Rodríguez; Jackson Martínez y Dorlan Pabón.

Two great promo videos for the women’s team (second one here) who are getting ready for the Olympics. Colombia are in Group G, with the USA, France and North Korea; they open up against North Korea on 25 July.
