Tricolor Salvaje: the video with AI that revolutionizes the networks

Artificial intelligence transforms those summoned into soap opera characters.

The viral phenomenon of ‘Tricolor Salvaje’

The official list of the 26 footballers who will represent Mexico in the 2026 World Cup not only generated analysis and memes. A group of fans used artificial intelligence to create a video inspired by Mexican soap operas, named ‘Tricolor Salvaje’. The production has already accumulated millions of views on X and Facebook.

The recording transforms those selected into characters in a story with drama, romance and rivalries. Use the song ‘Corazón Salvaje’, by Mijares, as the background. Among the most commented moments, Guillermo Ochoa appears riding as the protagonist, accompanied by Raúl Rangel and Carlos Acevedo. Defenders, such as Johan Vásquez, César Montes and Israel Reyes, are depicted as villains, while midfielders such as Edson Álvarez and Luis Chávez wear revolutionary outfits. Gilberto Mora and Obed Vargas, the youngest, appear characterized as children.

Colombia wins on the hour and is the leader of Group K

Colombia beats Congo 1-0 and takes provisional lead in Group K.

Victory that leaves Colombia on top

With a goal from defender Daniel Muñoz in the 76th minute, the Colombian National Team defeated the Democratic Republic of the Congo 1-0 at the Guadalajara Stadium. The victory places the South American team as provisional leader of Group K of the 2026 World Cup.

The African team planted an orderly defensive block. Their goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi was a figure when stopping several shots and canceling plays due to offside. Colombia generated dangerous arrivals, but it was difficult for them to break the lock.

The definition came when Muñoz took advantage of a mistake in marking inside the area to send the ball into the back of the net. The fans present celebrated the goal that unleashed euphoria in the stands.

With these three points, Colombia has six points and is at the top of the group. However, the final leadership will be defined on the last day. The next rival will be Portugal, a team led by Cristiano Ronaldo, which is also fighting for qualification and first place in the area.

The match against the Portuguese will be crucial to define the pass to the next phase. Colombia will seek to secure its ticket with a good result.

Aguirre closes the door to a possible tribute for Ochoa

Aguirre rules out giving minutes to Ochoa despite his World Cup history.

Despite the fact that Guillermo Ochoa has won six World Cups with Mexico, Javier Aguirre made it clear that he will not field the goalkeeper for mere recognition. After the victory against South Korea, versions emerged about a possible “tribute” against the Czech Republic. The technician firmly deactivated them.

“I always said, since I came back, that I wasn’t going to give anything away, that those who are here are due to their own merit. Due to injury we lost Marcel Ruiz, Luis Ángel Malagón and Rodrigo Huescas. Those who are in the best moment come to the National Team,” declared the ‘Basque’ in a conference.

Aguirre recognized the historical weight of Ochoa – present in every World Cup since Germany 2006, although he only played in Brazil 2014, Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022 – and mentioned that the goalkeeper announced his retirement after this tournament. But that doesn’t guarantee you minutes.

“I don’t know how many Mexican players have been in six World Cups. Memo is with us distilling wisdom and experience, but even he gets tired of being talked to if he is going to play. I see him well, like Carlos Acevedo and ‘Tala’ Rangel,” he added.

In the last training session, Ochoa felt discomfort in his hip due to the poor state of the field at the CAR, but a serious injury was ruled out. His participation against the Czechs remains unknown, but Aguirre was blunt: there will be no gifts.
