Who will play for Colombia in the 2015 Copa America

Colombia’s national team, that will play in the 2015 Copa America in Chile, has been pre-selected by Jose Nestor Pekerman, the Argentine coach of the soccer club.

The list includes 30 players and many familiar names, including Radamel Falcao of Manchester United and James Rodriguez of Real Madrid.

Colombia undoubtedly seeks to improve on their 2011 performance in the Copa America in Argentina, where they placed a disappointing sixth place after being eliminated in the quarterfinals.

The team appears to have improved since then, placing fifth overall in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and third among teams from Latin America.

With a healthy Falcao, the hope is that Colombia will be a top contender for the championship.

The pre-selected team is as follows:

The first match is on June 11, 2015, against Venezuela.
