The Colombian women's team finished its Asian tour with a 1-1 draw against South Korea, which joined the tight 1-0 victory of the first friendly, achieved thanks to a free kick of Catalina Usme.
Although the results were not negative, collective performance continues to leave doubts.
In the second game, Colombia suffered from the beginning with a goalkeeper goal, showed nervousness in defense and barely achieved the tie with an autogol caused by the pressure of Linda Caicedo. The general image was a game, without depth or clarity in the game.
From the Paris Olympic Games, the team has failed to consolidate a sustained evolution.
In the last year, the low level has been constant: the same tactical errors are repeated, there is a lack of connection in the midfield and too much dependence on players such as Caicedo, which plays well but isolated.
The defense had prominent moments, with Tapia and Daniela Arias as Salvadoras, but the bands are still a weak point.
The final balance of this tour is not the best, especially thinking about the Copa América 2025 that will be played in Ecuador between July 12 and August 2.
Ángelo Marsiglia's team, who seems to have not found a clear idea or a consolidated eleven, will have to improve a lot if he wants to reach the final and fight for a direct quota to the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games. Today, Brazil remains the great favorite and Colombia, beyond some decorous results, does not seem to be ready to dispute the throne.
