South Korea hosted Colombia in an international friendly earlier today. During a minor dust-up between players, Colombian midfielder Edwin Cardona made the slant-eye gesture in the faces of some South Korean players.

Your first reaction to this video of former Colombia national team striker Teófilo Gutiérrez pulling off one of the worst penalty kicks you’ll ever see will probably be to laugh and laugh and laugh.

For most of the world’s elite national teams, qualifying for the World Cup is a charade. Sure, Spain and Germany and the other powerhouses have to earn their places into the world’s biggest sporting event, but because those countries are so reliably great, they can generally nab their spot without their fans ever…

Brazil and Colombia are playing right now in what will hopefully be tonight’s only competitive World Cup qualifying match, and Willian—owner of the sporting world’s best afro since Randy Moss’s—thumped the snot out of the ball en route to scoring this beauty:

The best Colombian cyclists have long hewed to a single archetype, specializing in climbing high mountains and winning on the harshest and steepest slopes. There have been Colombian rouleurs and sprinters before, but the most successful riders have almost all been pure climbers. Lucho “El Jardinerito” Herrera brought…

Before the start of Independiente Santa Fe and Santos FC Copa Libertadores group stage match on Wednesday night in Bogotá, Colombian club Santa Fe intended to honor former Santos player Alexandre de Carvalho Kaneko, who recently died. Instead, they memorialized current Santos striker Ricardo Oliveira, who was…

Colombian soccer announcer Javier Fernández is the world’s greatest sports broadcaster. Here’s James knocking in a penalty rebound for his side’s only goal in Colombia’s win over Bolivia today, as called by “El Cantante del Gol” and complete with the traditional heavy metal goal music.

The Dominican Republic and Colombia battled through eleven innings of competitive, engaging baseball this afternoon that ended with the cheap artificiality of the World Baseball Classic’s extra-innings rules.

César Carrillo gave his Jaguares side a 1-0 lead over Millonarios with a golazo from distance that brought a, uh, modestly full Estadio Jaraguay to a frenzy.

The Copa Sudamericana final was supposed to be tonight in Medellin, but the game was called off shortly after Brazilian club Chapecoense’s flight went down outside the city. Since the crash, the soccer world has offered tributes to the club, with their fellow Brazilian first division sides even offering to loan them…

Brazilian first division club Chapecoense was flying to Medellin last night when their plane went down outside the city, killing 71 of the 77 passengers. The club was flying to Medellin to play Atletico Nacional in the Copa Sudamericana final.

An airplane on which the Brazilian first-division soccer team Chapecoense was flying crashed near the end of its flight from Bolivia to Colombia last night, reportedly killing nearly everyone onboard in one of the worst air disasters in sports history.

Cristiano Ronaldo is exalted for a great many reasons. He’s also reviled and/or ridiculed for a few others, like his arrogance, his lack of sportsmanship, and his self-centeredness.

Yeah, so Colombia took an early lead on the U.S. in tonight’s Copa América third-place match, but that means we once again get to check in on the cybernetic-lunged “El Cantante del Gol,” Javier Fernández. Tonight’s heavy metal “¡Gol!” spanned 37 seconds of uninterrupted, uh, “¡Gol!”-ing. I can’t even hold my breath…

Chile vs. Colombia was exciting during the first half, nonexistent for the next two hours, then soggy and boring for the second half. Thankfully, stoppage time featured an amazing moment in Idiot On The Field history, as this enterprising dumbass managed to escape a sizable horde of the security team, run the length…
