Will miss rest of World Cup
Cordoba was diagnosed with a hamstring strain that will keep him sidelined for around four weeks, thus ending his participation in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, according to Pipe Sierra of Diario AS.
Analysis: Cordoba was subbed off early in the first half during the Round of 32 win over Ghana on Friday, and further tests confirmed the worst possible outcome for the striker. That means Luis Suarez will lead the line for Los Cafeteros in the upcoming matches, while Cucho Hernandez will be the lone backup striker available on the squad.
Will need assessment
Cordoba (muscular) was forced off in the eighth minute of Friday's round of 32 clash against Ghana after feeling a muscle twinge, with the Colombia medical staff set to evaluate him starting Saturday to determine the severity and whether he can continue at the World Cup, according to Pipe Sierra of AS Colombia.
Analysis: Cordoba had started in what was a significant blow for Colombia given his importance as an attacking option, with Luis Suarez coming on as an early replacement. The evaluation results over the coming days will determine whether Cordoba can play any further part in the tournament, with Cucho Hernandez available as another forward option if he cannot continue.
