What happens when you’re a star player who gets an amazing reception? You snap a photo.
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
There’s nothing new to seeing supportive fans welcome back a losing team following defeat, but Colombia raised the bar with its amazing celebration for the national team on their return from the World Cup. Now James Rodriguez is doing his part to return the generosity by taking a selfie with ALL OF COLOMBIA.
His message to the people is simple:
“Thank you all, I feel very proud to be Colombian.”
Rightfully so. Bravo.
