Colombia Coach's Philosophical Take: "It's Not About How Many Attacks, But How We Finish Them"

Colombia's national team coach, Néstor Lorenzo, has cautioned that his squad must neutralize DR Congo's counter-attacks in their upcoming Group K match in Guadalajara. The South Americans kicked off their campaign with a 3-1 victory over Uzbekistan, but Lorenzo believes the next encounter will present a distinctly different challenge. He noted that the African side, playing in a 5-3-2 formation, executes very rapid transitions on the counter-attack. 

"The important thing isn't how many attacks we launch, but how we finish them," the coach stated. "Lucho (Luis Díaz) is a complete forward. We need to play with passionate hearts and cool heads," Néstor Lorenzo added.
