James Rodriguez leaves Colombia squad early
After the most embarrassing flop of all time against South Korea a couple days ago, James Rodriguez has been sent back to Munich early.
Both James and Christian Zapata were sent back to their respective clubs after playing the full 90 minutes in Colombia’s 2-1 loss.
There are no indications as to the reason for him being sent home but it doesn’t appear to be anything serious.

The crazy thing is Lukaku still has many years ahead to score more and more and be the sole leader in goals.
