The Colombian team champion of the South American sub-20 of 2005

The championship returned to Colombia until 2005, a pleasant memory because it was where coffee football figures became known who later triumphed worldwide and led the Tricolor to a senior world cup after 16 years of absence.

The entire championship was played in the Eje Cafetero, and it is the most remembered because Lionel Messi played with the Argentine team. However, Colombia, under the technical direction of Eduardo Lara and with players like Falcao García, Freddy Guarín, Juan Carlos Toja and Hugo Rodallega, who is the all-time top scorer in the U-20 South American with 11 goals, lifted the second trophy for Tricolor.

In 1992, again Colombia would be the headquarters of the South American sub-20 with two particularities. The first is that it did not have the presence of Argentina, which was suspended by FIFA due to acts of indiscipline in the 1991 World Cup in Portugal, while Venezuela did not participate for reasons that are still unknown.

It took 23 years for this contest to return to Colombian soil, on that occasion, the national team was champion after winning the final homer defeating Argentina on the first date and did the same with Uruguay to give an Olympic return at the Hernán Ramírez Villegas after draw goalless against Brazil.

Those led by Héctor Cárdenas were seeded in Group A together with Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Peru, while Uruguay, Chile, Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezuela were located in Group B.
