Colombia national soccer team head coach Jose Pekerman told local media that maintaining the high level of the players is of tantamount importance during analysis that followed Colombia’s 0-0 tie in the exhibition match against the Netherlands.

“The Dutch style of playing favored Colombia,” said Pekerman. “We must now draw conclusions from the two games we had to face.”

Pekerman also pointed out the performance of Victor Ibarbo who scored one of the two goals against Belgium in Colombia’s 2-0 victory over the European country.

“We must maintain a high level from all our players,” said Pekerman.

In March 2014, Colombia will return for another round of exhibition matches before heading to the FIFA 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
