Solid at left-back
Mojica had one shot (zero on goal) and two crosses (one accurate) in Wednesday's 3-1 win against Uzbekistan. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 7th minute.
Analysis: Mojica provided defensive cover and width from left-back across the full match, helping Colombia control possession and limit Uzbekistan's attacking opportunities for large stretches of the contest. He was part of a back line that conceded only once, on Abbosbek Fayzullaev's hour-mark equalizer. Mojica's consistency will be important as Colombia look to maintain their defensive solidity in the group's remaining matches. The Mallorcan contributed one shot, two crosses and four clearances as the first left-back choice for the Cafeteros ahead of Deiver Andres Machado.
Regular at left-back for Colombia
Mojica has been named in Colombia's World Cup squad and is expected to be a crucial figure on the left side of Colombia's defensive and attacking setup throughout the competition.
Analysis: Mojica ended the season with Mallorca having been a regular presence at left-back, contributing four assists, 36 chances created and 133 crosses in 35 La Liga apperances, both defensively and providing an attacking outlet in a campaign that ultimately saw the club getting relegated in Segunda Divison. Mojica brings intensity, physical presence and a willingness to bomb forward from left-back that gives Colombia an additional attacking dimension, and his experience at the top level of European football makes him a trusted option for manager Lorenzo in such a high-pressure tournament. Mojica heads into the World Cup determined to make his mark on what could be one of his final appearances on the biggest stage in international football.
