GROUP K INFO

About Group K

Colombia return to the World Cup after missing Qatar 2022, drawn into Group K alongside Portugal, DR Congo, and Uzbekistan. Their campaign is spread across Mexico and the United States: opening at the iconic Estadio Azteca in Mexico City against Uzbekistan, continuing at Estadio Akron in Guadalajara against DR Congo, and closing with a high-stakes group finale against Portugal at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. Colombia’s opener against Uzbekistan and second game against DR Congo are their best chances to secure qualification before the Portugal showdown. Veteran playmaker James Rodríguez brings unrivalled creativity and big-game experience, while Liverpool winger Luis Díaz is one of the tournament’s most dangerous wide players. Striker Jhon Duran and midfielder Richard Ríos add youthful energy under the tactical guidance of coach Néstor Lorenzo. Colombia reached the quarter-finals in 2014 and the last 16 in 2018 — this squad has the talent and hunger to go even further.
