5 Songs to Celebrate Colombia’s National Soccer Team: ‘El Ritmo Que Nos Une’ & More

On July 6, Colombia’s national team scored a stunning 5-0 victory over Panama in the quarterfinals of the Conmebol Copa América 2024.

Now, the Colombian team will face Uruguay on July 10 at 8pm ET at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC for a berth in the final and a chance to win the men’s soccer championship title.

Over the course of this journey, and throughout the history of Colombian soccer, music has been a constant source of inspiration for both the team and their fans. Inspired by this great triumph, we present five emblematic songs to encourage the national team in the next stage.

Although there are countless songs dedicated to the Colombian tricolor over the years, some odes have remained with the Colombian team’s fans, becoming timeless hits to cheer every time they play a game.

The list includes the official anthem for the Copa América 2024: “El Ritmo Que Nos Une” by Ryan Castro with SOG and the Colombia national team. In fact, two of the players, striker Luis Diaz and midfielder Juan Fernando Quintero, make their debut in the song by rapping some lines, something that has not been seen before. In addition, the entire team can be seen in the music video.

Other favorites include the so-called second Colombian anthem, the cumbia “Colombia Tierra Querida” by Lucho Bermudez, and the salsa choke “Ras Tas Tas,” which became popular during the 2014 World Cup and is now here to stay.

Here, we recommend five songs to celebrate Colombia’s national soccer team:
