Colombia won their final match of 2023 in a friendly against Venezuela this Sunday. The match, held at Lockhart Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA), ended 1-0 thanks to an own goal by Venezuelan player Andres Ferro.
Now, Colombia’s next match is on Saturday at 9pm (Brasilia time) in Los Angeles. The friendly was the team’s last match of the year. In 2024, the team will only return to the field in June when they make their Copa America debut against Paraguay.
