Colombia U20 vs Costa Rica U20

Colombia U20 and Costa Rica U20 played out a goalless draw at the FCF Sports Headquarters in Barranquilla on May 26, with both defenses holding firm throughout and neither side finding the breakthrough in this well-organized friendly. No goals, no red cards, no penalties — a clean and composed 90 minutes from both sides as coaches César Torres and Randall Row focused on building shape and testing squad depth rather than chasing a result. Costa Rica left with their confidence intact, having topped their Concacaf qualifying group with 21 goals and only three conceded in four matches. The Ticos are building toward the Concacaf Sub-20 Championship, a tournament that dishes out spots for both the next FIFA U20 World Cup and the 2028 Olympics in Mexico. For Colombia — bronze medalists at the 2025 FIFA U20 World Cup after defeating France — attention now shifts to the Maurice Revello Tournament in France, where they open on June 2.
