Nelson Abadia said his Colombia team were “playing for all the Americas” after a 1-0 win over Jamaica on Tuesday set up a Women’s World Cup quarter-final clash with European champions England.
Colombia failed to qualify for the 2019 World Cup but topped their group in Australia, stunning Germany along the way and are now into the last eight for the first time.
