Colombia will be led by James RodrÃguez in a pair of upcoming international friendlies as they prepare for their World Cup qualifying campaign.
Al Ayam reports that the Colombian national team will face Croatia on March 26th in Orlando, Florida, followed by a match against France three days later in Washington D.C.
This pair of friendlies serves as crucial preparation for Colombia, who begin their journey in the World Cup on June 17th against Uzbekistan.
However, according to forum.kooora.com, Colombia will be without star player James RodrÃguez for both matches due to an unspecified injury. He did not travel to Bahrain as a result.
Despite the absence of RodrÃguez, Colombia will look to build momentum ahead of the World Cup. James RodrÃguez recently showcased his playmaking ability, creating two goals in a Copa América victory over Paraguay, demonstrating his continued importance to the national team when fit.
