The left back was named in Colombia’s draw with Uruguay. Drastic decision by the DT.
The Colombian National Team dropped points at home in the South American Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. The 2-2 draw against Uruguay, on matchday 3, left a bitter taste for the fans, the players and the coaching staff, headed by Néstor Lawrence.
Colombia won the match 2-1 and was able to extend the advantage; However, in the 86th minute the National Team made a double error and the Charrúas took charge: first, a foul by Wilmar Barrios, for many unnecessary, and then the great mistake by Frank Fabra, who made a little tackle to return the ball to the rivals, who They got excited, took risks and caused a penalty and the expulsion of goalkeeper Camilo Vargas.
Then Darwin Núñez scored 2-2, beating Álvaro Montero from the white spot.
The big one was Fabra, because, despite his experience, he made a childish mistake, leaving the ball to his rival while the Colombian defense retreated.
The National Team trained this Friday in Antioquia, as it traveled to that area of the country to have adequate conditioning, since on Tuesday the 17th it will face Ecuador in Quito, for date 4 of the Conmebol Qualifiers.
Thus, in the Colombian environment there is already talk that Néstor Lorenzo would make a drastic decision, charging Fabra for his mistake and thus thinking about the first change (beyond the one required in the goal) for the crucial match.
Déiver Machado would return to the starting lineup, and Fabra would be a substitute, or even go to the stands, since there is a third left-handed back, which is Cristian Borja.
