At 9 am on July 3rd, Brazil will face Colombia in the third round of Group D of the Copa América. Colombia coach Lorenzo attended the pre-match press conference.
Lorenzo said: “We are not favorites in the match against Brazil. Brazil is a team with a long history, and we just want to write a few pages in Colombian history. It’s good, but we are eager to achieve more. In the match against Brazil, we will not relax at any time. It will be difficult to control the pace throughout the game. We would like to maintain this for 90 minutes, but we have to admit that we will have to play with a lower profile at certain moments.”
Regarding the players’ yellow card situation, Lorenzo replied: “The priority is to qualify from the group. Thinking about the next game is like underestimating the opponent of the day. Brazil deserves our attention, and our idea is to compete with these great teams.”
Colombia only needs to get one point in this match to secure the top spot in the group. They are currently just two games away from equaling their own record of 25 unbeaten matches.
