That day, Solomon Rondon he was absent in the ‘Metro’ and had to suffer from a distance with Duván Zapata’s goal and Luis Muriel’s brace. Now, the Venezuelan scorer issued a harsh sentence to Colombia: it must be attacked from all sides.
Solomon dialogue with the program Directv Sports Total Soccer, where he mentioned that they are playing a “classic” against Colombia and that without a doubt they will not want to lose, beyond the fact that they no longer play the qualification for Qatar. They go for the honour. Rondón made it clear that if he had to choose between Uruguay, Colombia and Peru, “none would go.”
The Pékerman team will first visit Argentina and then receive Colombia. “I believe that the derby is Colombia. The one who can have it more accessible can be Peru,” mentioned Yerry Mina’s teammate at Everton. The tricolor is not in his accounts, which could arrive lifeless to the last day in Puerto Ordáz in case of losing to Bolivia in Barranquilla.
“Everything is in order for Venezuela to beat Colombia on the last date of the Qualifiers. You have to attack it from all sides (…) We haven’t talked about this match, but I tell him ‘Professor, this match is untouchable’. I have experienced it on many occasions and it is a special match”, mentioned the Venezuelan attacker.
Finally, Rondón also recognized that Reinaldo Rueda’s team is one of the best generations, by names and category, and is experiencing a difficult moment that he did not expect to see. “I did not expect Colombia to be in this situation because it is one of the best generations I have seen in all its lines; it is difficult to see them like this.”
Salomón scored a hat-trick in the 4-1 win over Bolivia, in the qualifying round they played in March. Against Colombia he will seek to return to the goal that against Uruguay was so elusive. His team is last in the table with 10 points and they will try to get out of the poor place. Will it go as planned?
