        Colombia all the way! Why? Because they never colonized my country nor plundered my country’s natural resources! Yes, I never forget!

        Am supporting #COL because am addicted to the #WorldCup drama that has gone on so far. And yah, the English faces after the final whistle will be icing to the cake.

        Supporting COL cos if England wins a WC, we wouldn’t hear word for 4yrs. Anytime Kane touches a ball in the EPL, we would hear he won the WC 3years ago 🙄🙄

        I’m supporting England because they’ve been doing a fantastic job so far and I do believe they have what it takes to win this match and send the Colombians home. Come on England! 🙌🏾🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
