Why you should back Colombia

Right wing Daniel Munoz has helped spark the Colombian offense, scoring two goals in the tournament. He scored at the 32nd minute in a 2-1 win over Paraguay on June 24, and followed that up with a goal in first-half extra time in a 1-1 draw with Brazil on Tuesday. Since joining the national team in 2021, he has registered three goals in 30 appearances. He is a member of Crystal Palace of the English Premier League.

Also boosting the offense is team captain James Rodriguez. The 32-year-old midfielder has been with the national team since 2011, and has scored 27 times in 103 matches. His professional resume is equally as impressive, having played for four seasons in Spain’s La Liga for Real Madrid, where he scored 29 goals in 85 appearances. He currently is a member of Sao Paulo of Brazil’s Serie A team. See which team to pick here.

Why you should back Panama

Yanis has 10 goals in 115 professional matches.

In 49 appearances for the national team, Rodriguez has recorded six goals, including a pair last month in 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying.
