JAKARTA - Colombia and Uruguay will face off in a World Cup qualifier on Friday. This means that Yerry Mina will again face Luis Suarez, who both played for Barcelona.
The two players previously met in the quarter-finals of the Copa America last summer. At that time, Colombia advanced to the semifinals by beating Uruguay 4-2 on penalties.
But, after that match, the conversation focused on one person: Yerry Mina.
After scoring his penalty goal in the shootout, he celebrated with a dance to mock Uruguay.
In Colombia's next match, they faced Argentina, who went on to win the competition, and the clash once again had to go on penalties.
This time, however, Mina was not so lucky as her penalty was saved by Argentine goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.
After the penalty was saved by Emi, Lionel Messi shouted at him, "Dance now, dance now, Mina!" although the two have played together for half a season at Barcelona.
After the match, Messi posted a message on his Instagram about Argentina qualifying for the final, which Luis Suarez commented on; "Now they're dancing!"
Mina will meet Suarez again on Friday as both are determined to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. But, who will dance in this fight? We will see later.
