Realistically, he just squeezed into the squad but offers plenty of back-up to the first-choice pairing of Agustin Delgado and Ivan Kaviedes.

However, the 27-year-old can break defences with his incredible turn of speed.

He likes to get in a position to cross the ball and, therefore, rarely finds himself as the last man in front of goal.

He is yet to score his first goal for his country but coach Hernan Dario Gomez believes they will soon flow.
