What happened to Linda Caicedo during training? The Colombian would have suffered a fainting spell.

Since the beginning of the Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, Colombia has been paying close attention to the performance of their National Team. However, concern has grown after learning that Linda Caicedo, the team's top player, fainted during a training session in Oceania. The talented player, who scored the second goal in the victory against South Korea, collapsed suddenly, which has raised concerns for the Tricolor coaching staff ahead of the upcoming match against Germany, scheduled for Sunday, July 30.

So far, there has been no official statement from the FCF regarding Caicedo's health condition. Daniel Arias and Carolina Arias, present at the scene, were the first to notice the situation and requested medical assistance from Dr. Ana Betancourt, who immediately came to aid the player.

Several journalists present during the training were evacuated from the stadium while medical attention was given to Linda Caicedo, keeping the football community and the player's fans on standby for more information about her health status.

Journalist Melissa Martínez shared an image of the moment on Twitter, showing the delegation around the player concerned about her condition. José Alberto Ortiz provided more details, indicating that Caicedo collapsed while jogging around the field and was attended by the medical department due to chest discomfort.

Over the years, the Colombian footballer has accumulated notable and significant achievements in her professional career, demonstrating remarkable progress in her sporting performance. This has led her to become an outstanding figure in women's football, not only in her country but also at the international level.

After coming of age, it didn't take long for her arrival at the women's team of Real Madrid to be confirmed. Since joining, she has already scored two goals and has earned a starting position under the guidance of Alberto Toril. Additionally, she was awarded the title of "Queen of America" by the newspaper 'El País' from Uruguay.

One of the most recent awards she received from the representatives of the International Federation of History and Statistics was that of the best under-20 player in 2022.
