Victor Ibarbo, World Cup player with Colombia in Brazil 2014, returned to the national team to lend a hand when it was most needed. In the victory against Brazil, the tumaqueño was vital in blocking the Colombian left side.
An important victory: "I am happy with these three points that put us back in the race."
Instructions from the coaching staff during the substitution for Falcao: "Coach Pekerman ordered me to do what I have always done, which is to block the left side, since Dani Alves was coming out a lot from that sector."
Performance in the 22 minutes played: "We did a good job when we entered and thank God, the teammates gave me the confidence to help. Today we worked as a great group, as a team."
