Brazil vs. Colombia Line-Ups; Rematch In Miami

Brazil and Colombia meet in Miami for a rematch of the World Cup game that took place almost exactly two months ago. After four yellow cards, one broken back and Colombia’s World Cup finished the game ended 2-1 with goals from Thiago Silva, David Luiz and James Rodriguez, two of whom traveled to Miami to be with their national teams during the international FIFA break. Ready to face off in a sold out crowd in Sun Life Stadium on this muggy Miami evening, both teams are looking for revenge after disappointing finishes in Brazil.

Neymar makes his first appearance for Brazil since breaking his back during the 88th minute of Brazil’s game against Colombia and has been named the newest captain of the Seleção. Camilo Zuñiga will be captaining the Colombian team, as they look to earn a different result from their last match-up in Fortaleza.

Brazil: Jefferson (Botafogo FR), Maicon (Roma), Miranda (Atlético Madrid), David Luiz (Paris Saint-Germain), Filipe Luis (Chelsea), Ramires (Chelsea), Diego Tardelli (Atlético Mineiro), Neymar (FC Barcelona), Oscar (Chelsea), Luiz Gustavo (VfL Wolfsburg), Willian (Chelsea)

Colombia: David Ospina (Arsenal), Camilo Zuñiga (Nápoli) (C), Cristian Zapata (Milán), Carlos Valdés (Philadelphia Union), Pablo Armero (Milán), Aldo Leao Ramírez (Atlas), Carlos Sanchez (Aston Villa), Juan G. Cuadrado (Fiorentina), James Rodriguez (Real Madrid), Jackson Martínez (Porto), Teófilo Guitiérrez (River Plate)

This is the 26th time these teams have faced off, the first time they met was January 21st 1945 and since then Brazil has won 15 times with eight draws and two Colombian victories.
