"El Pibe" Valderrama Has His Favorite Between Colombia and Argentina
With just a few days left until the 2024 Copa América final, where reigning champions Argentina will face the undefeated Colombia, legendary player Carlos "Pibe" Valderrama has already made his prediction.
The former Colombian player had declared at the start of the tournament that the final would be between the "Albiceleste" and the "Cafeteros." Showing great confidence in his national team, Valderrama predicted that Colombia would win the final 2-1.
"Colombia is the favorite, and I'll take a risk. There will be a final with Argentina, and we will win 2-1," was the "prophecy" of the now football analyst. Valderrama also expressed his satisfaction with the progress of the Colombian national team: "I am optimistic about the Colombian national team, because of the process and the results they have been achieving. Not only because of that but also because of their style of play."
Surprisingly, this is not the first time Valderrama has made an accurate prediction. Before the Qatar World Cup, the veteran ex-footballer predicted that Argentina would be the champion due to "their great play."
