Juan Camilo ‘Cucho’ Hernández, one of the great absences in the call for the Colombian National Team for the start of the Qualifiers, was the great figure in the Columbus Crew’s 2-4 victory over Montreal. The 24-year-old from Pereira contributed a real hat trick (scoring with his head, left leg and right leg) to seal the victory for his team.

El Cucho was present on the scoreboard at minute 22, appearing unmarked to define a precise cross from Uruguayan Diego Rossi, defeating Canadian goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois and leaving the partial score 0-2.

Hernández scored again after 43 minutes, this time making it 0-3, appearing again unmarked in the center of the area only to have to push off a pass from Ghana’s Yaw Yeboah with his left foot.

Cucho’s triplet, the one that closed the scoring power of his team and with which he signed his authentic hat trick, came after 65 minutes, exchanging a shot from the penalty spot with his right leg for a goal, choosing the right post of the rival goalkeeper .
