The coffee growers do not depend on themselves to make the pass to the repechage, but they must still beat the 'Vinotinto' to hold on to the miracle.

The teams of Colombia and Venezuela will meet this Tuesday, March 29 at the Cachamay stadium in a duel valid for the 18th and the last of the South American Qualifiers. Undoubtedly, two momentous events will mark this duel, whose referee will be the Brazilian Wilton Sampaio. The first is the fight for the repechage that the 'coffee growers' have before the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, while the second has to do with the morbidity of the reunion between the coach of the 'Vinotinto', José Néstor Pékerman, who was dismissed by the Colombians to put Reinaldo Rueda in his place in the middle of the process qualifier.

The away team is in sixth position with 20 points , so he needs victory to aspire to the quota of the repechage. It won't be easy, since it doesn't depend on itself. And it is that he has the Peruvian national team ahead with 21 points and with great chances of winning against a Paraguay eliminated in local condition. In addition, the other rival in competition, Chile (seventh with 19 points), will receive a qualified Uruguay. For this reason, the coffee growers must focus on winning their match and waiting for Chileans and Peruvians to lose their matches.

The Colombians also returned to the path of triumph and goal, after to have won 3-0 to Bolivia in Barranquilla. They had an impressive negative run of 684 minutes without scoring a single goal, but they were finally able to end it against 'Verde'. No doubt, they will arrive motivated and toned before the Venezuelans.

The negative point for those led by Reinaldo is in the absence of key pieces such as the versatile Juan Guillermo Cuadrado and the striker Alfredo Morelos. The Juventus Italia player will miss the match by accumulating yellow cards, while the Scottish Rangers attacker suffers from an injury to his left thigh.

“It is a match that is played to the death, because of the rivalry that exists. Because of the knowledge of Professor Pékerman, who comes out to win, we expect a proactive Venezuela that will seek the match, like us,” said striker Luis Fernando Muriel at a press conference prior to the match.

In the case of the 'Vinotinto', they are positioned in the last square with just 10 points. His presence in this match will be almost testimonial, but there is one factor that motivates his players: the presence of José Néstor Pékerman at the helm of the team. The experienced coach took over the reins of the squad in December 2021 with a view to a long-term project, so all footballers have the goal of filling his eyes to be considered in the calls, taking into account the scrolls of the Argentine.

Now, as for the casualties, the 'llanero' cast will not be Jhon Chancellor or Roberto Rosales. Both are suspended due to accumulation of yellow cards. Although there will be the dangerous strikers Josef Martínez and Salomón Rondón.

Finally, there is one fact that is no less important, and that is that 'coffee growers' have not managed to beat Venezuelans in more than 20 years. And in 1996 they won their last 2-0 victory with goals from Jorge Bermudez and Iván René Valenciano. Another reason for them to win this crucial match.

PÉKERMAN REUNION — COLOMBIA

In addition, Pékerman's presence in the Venezuelan bank will bring strange memories in Colombians. The veteran strategist led them in the first matches of the current qualifiers, but was later dismissed by the leaders to place, curiously, Reinaldo Rueda in the position of DT, for whom they paid the clause he had in Chile. On this occasion, José Néstor can eliminate them in what would be a utopian situation. Everything will be defined this Tuesday, March 29.

I have a strong affection and affection for Colombia. The match will be very special, today I have the 'Vinotinto' shirt, to which I owe and I have every commitment to face a very difficult match, without a doubt,” the coach 'gaucho' confessed at a press conference.
