Colombia

Colombia's 26-man World Cup squad has an average age of 29. 2 years, with three goalkeepers, eight defenders, nine midfielders and six forwards providing balanced depth and clear structure across every line, while Luis Diaz, Daniel Munoz and Davinson Sanchez form the key spine linking midfield, defence and attack. Head coach Nestor Lorenzo uses his midfield numbers to strengthen ball control and the rhythm of transitions, relying on a compact defensive organisation and width on both flanks to unlock creativity up front, with an overall approach that emphasises collective defending and attacking, a tight shape and flexible in-game adjustments.
