Colombia has fired national soccer team coach Leonel Alvarez after barely four months in charge of the team. Alvarez oversaw three World Cup qualifying matches during his tenure: a 2-1 win in Bolivia, a 2-1 loss to Argentina and a 1-1 draw against Venezuela. Colombian soccer federation president Luis Bedoya says the decision made by the organization's seven-man board was "unanimous." Alvarez took over in August after predecessor Hernan Dario Gomez left the job after he hit a woman in a Bogota bar. Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos says on his official Twitter account that the federation should choose the "best coach available" to replace Alvarez, even if that means a foreigner.Alvarez took over in August after predecessor Hernan Dario Gomez left the job after he hit a woman in a Bogota bar.Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos says on his official Twitter account that the federation should choose the “best coach available” to replace Alvarez, even if that means a foreigner.
