The now Deportivo Cali player in dialogue with Win Sports vented after the failure of the Colombian team in the recent South American qualifier heading to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

In addition, he hinted that his cycle with the tricolor t-shirt came to an end. 'Teo' chose not to criticize his colleagues and assured that they did their best to lead Colombia to a new world cup:
However, Gutiérrez Roncancio, who played the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, did aim against the managers after the elimination.
