The Colombia women's team began by scoring one point at the 2022 South American Women's U-20 Championship, held in La Calera, Chile.
The tricolor competitors sealed an even debut against albiceleste, which came from a goalless match against Chile in the tournament debut on April 6.
The team coached by Carlos Paniagua was solid in defense from the initial whistle and had possession of the ball, the main tool to hurt the gauchas, who bet on the offensive game.
Colombia tried to leak several passes to break the midfield and the rival defensive backward, but the lack of forcefulness ended up taking its toll on coffee makers, who could not get the desired goal.
The match recorded more direct shots to the goal from outside the area than a game made collectively. The parada ball and the centers by the bands were the constant of the debut at 5:00pm Chilean time. Relive below, the summary of the best plays of the 0-0 draw between Colombia and Argentina:
The national women's youth team is part of group A of the competition together with Argentina, Chile, Peru and Venezuela. She will now look to get into the top two places in the table to qualify for the final home run and subsequently become champion or runner-up with a view to getting her ticket to the U-20 Women's World Cup in Costa Rica.
Thus, coffee players will have the challenge of ratifying their candidacy and high level to return to a new World Cup after 12 years without reaching this stage, when they ranked fourth in Germany 2010.
It should be remembered that since this competition was played in 2004, Brazil has come out as the first eight times, except for the 2020 edition, which was not organized due to the health emergency caused by covid-19.
This is how the standings of group A go in the group stage before the debut of the coffee team, which rested on the first day:
1. Venezuela: 3 points (1 match played, goal difference of +2).
2nd Argentina: 2 points (2 games played, goal difference of 0).
3rd Chile: 1 point (1 match played, goal difference of 0).
4th Colombia: 1 point (1 match played, goal difference of 0).
5th Peru: 0 points (1 match played, goal difference of -2).
