Pura Vida! The Ticos tandem of Ronald Matarrita and Rodney Wallace received the good news today. Both players have been called in to Óscar Ramírez’s Costa Rican preliminary World Cup squad that will train and play friendly matches before the squad is whittled down to the final 23.
The schedule is strong and the stage couldn’t be bigger for two of our Boys in Blue.
Costa Rica’s run up to the World Cup should provide the tests necessary to get the squad in gear. La Sele have signed up for friendly matches across Europe against Northern Ireland, England, and Belgium ahead of making camp in Russia.
