Radamel Falcao's return to the Colombian National Team has been the talk of the week in the South American country, with fans and colleagues sharing their happiness on social media.
The striker seems to be recovering his goal scoring ability, following a couple of rough years with Manchester United and Chelsea.
Falcao had been left out of Los Cafeteros' squad for over a year, missing the Copa América Centenario and some World Cup Qualifying matches. But with his recent form, coach Nestor Pekerman decided to call him up again, giving fans a reason to give Falcao a warm welcome.
"I thank all fans that showed me their support and love since my arrival. God bless you!"

But if that wasn't enough, playmaker James Rodriguez had his say about playing with Falcao García one more time. Real Madrid's midfielder shared a picture on social media, where he appears alongside Monaco's striker. His message doesn't leave any room for speculation, as the talented footballers get ready to face Chile.
"Welcome back 'Tiger' Falcao! Let's dream together again!"
