25. Most importantly, because he is leading a team that is even better than the famed 1994 squad.
The current 2014 team is the first ever to make it to quarter-finals, making history.
So, if you're not a fan yet be sure to remember his name.
Because you'll be dancing to it later.
Colombia will be facing off against Brazil in the quarter-finals at 1:00 pm on July 4.
