Falcao laments rushed Colombia

Colombia forward Radamel Falcao rued his team's lack of patience during their 0-0 World Cup qualifying draw against Chile.

Jose Pekerman's men were unable to find a breakthrough in Barranquilla on Thursday, forced to settle for a point.

"We should have had more patience to search," he said.

"To find space and attack."

The result sees Colombia sitting third in CONMEBOL qualifying ahead of Tuesday's trip to Argentina.

"They [Chile] in the second half began to feel they were at a disadvantage," Falcao said.

"We tried, but could not make the goal that ultimately gives you three points."
