While this edition of the Copa America was supposed to take place in Colombia and Argentina, it was moved at the very last minute to Brazil. These comings and goings not only annoyed the various organizations, staffs, players but also the supporters. Among them, a Colombian family stands out in particular.
Visibly turned upside down after so many changes, Julia Calderon and her two children didn’t want to miss a Coffee growers for nothing in the world. Living in Florida in the United States, mother and son initially bought plane tickets to Buenos Aires before changing the flight to Brazil. The Colombian family obviously had its nose a little too much in the handlebars since after having gone through all these administrative steps and landed in Brazilian land, Julia notices that the meetings are played behind closed doors. “Colombia welcomed 30% of supporters during the last qualifying match for the World Cup against Argentina. So we thought it would be the same in Brazil“says the mother of the family, visibly surprised.
The three fervent supporters will therefore remain in Brazil for the entire group stage, until June 28. They will encourage the teammates of David ospina…. remotely. Encouragement that visibly paid off since Colombia beat Ecuador (1-0) for its opening match.
