Colombia was knocked out of the 2026 World Cup in the round of 16 after losing to Switzerland on penalties. And as happens every time the national team plays, Shakira was there, watching every minute, feeling every play.
She held nothing back. She wrote that the team played with a commitment that makes the whole country proud, and she added humor to the pain of the elimination: “It’s clear that God doesn’t get involved in football, because otherwise we would have made it to the quarterfinals”, she said, bringing a smile to thousands of heartbroken fans.
She also had words for Luis Díaz, whose tears became the symbol of this elimination. Shakira thanked the entire squad for representing Colombia with pride until the very end. Sometimes losing is accompanied too 🇨🇴💛
