Recently, the Colombian national team, preparing for the Copa America matches, has been showing good form: in the previous matches, they defeated Uruguay.
Colombia scored the first goal already in the 22nd minute of the match. It was a long-range shot by Tressoras Moreno. The Argentinians had opportunities to equalize, but failed to capitalize on them. A significant blow to the Argentinians' hopes of equalizing the score came 25 minutes before the end of the match - then Andres D'Alessandro was sent off the field for an elbow strike.
Colombians secured their victory in the 77th minute, when Cavallera defeated Sergio Herrera.
Argentina will now try to regroup and lick their wounds until Wednesday, when they will meet the Peruvian national team in friendly matches in New York.
