James Rodriguez Golden Boot

  –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– When I put together a post last week celebrating Colombia’s remarkable progress in the Brazil 2014 World Cup, I really though that would be the last time I wrote about the tournament for See Colombia (expect maybe for some misty-eyed retrospective in about 6 months time).
