Colombia — last major trophy
Time since last trophy
Colombia won the tournament unbeaten on home soil, beating Mexico 1-0 in the final, for their only Copa America title.
Colombia's only major trophy came at the 2001 Copa America, which they hosted at a tense moment in the country's history — the tournament went ahead despite security concerns and the withdrawal of Argentina, who pulled out over safety fears. Colombia won every match they played, finishing unbeaten and conceding just twice in six games, and beat Mexico 1-0 in the final through an Ivan Cordoba header. It remains the country's only Copa America title and their only major trophy overall — Colombia has never reached a World Cup final, with their best finish a quarterfinal appearance at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, led by James Rodriguez, who won the tournament's Golden Boot with six goals.
