Yeimar Gomez Andrade reflects on his first national team call-up

Pastor Yeimar was called up to the Colombia national team. He was playing for Chico FC in Bogota. Yeimar moved to Seattle Sounders at the age of 16. He believes MLS is not a business move, but a chance to develop a talent. His family is very happy for him. Pastor Yeimer has always taken risks for the greater good. For him, the biggest risk was to move to a professional soccer league. It paid off. The team he played for won the World Cup. They are called La Selección Colombia. Their coach is Juan Carlos Ponce. In his opinion, MLS should not be seen as a way to earn money.

Yeimar Gomez Andrade was called up to the Colombia squad. He will join the training camp on Monday morning. Yeimar is not expecting to play a lot of games for Colombia. If he does play, he will learn from the older players. He is prepared to come in right the way if his number is called. His club Seattle Sounders takes on Whitecaps in Vancouver on Sunday. It is Yeimmy Chara who got his first call-up to Colombia in 2010. Yerry Mina is injured and not considered for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
