Unlucky Morelos misses cap call due to injury
Alfredo Morelos has been left out of the Colombia squad to face Bolivia tonight due to a muscular overload.
The Sevco ace has travelled to South America to be declared unfit for purpose after appearing at training with a padding on his left leg. Morelos has been substituted in his last three club appearances.
After playing for just seven minutes of the Copa America last summer the striker dropped out of the Colombia squad before being recalled for the last pair of qualifiers although he failed to make it into the 23 man matchday squad.
