Néstor Lorenzo

What fascinates me about Nestor Lorenzo is the quiet logic of his second act. He spent his playing days as a towering 193cm defender for clubs like Boca Juniors and San Lorenzo, a man whose job was to deny others, and now he is reshaping Colombia into one of the most admired national teams in the world. I find it telling that a defender's mind builds such a vibrant attacking side; defenders understand chaos better than anyone, so they know exactly how to impose order. An Argentine carrying Colombian passion onto the bench is a beautiful kind of football diplomacy, and I respect the craft behind it.
