Fans ready to ‘give up sleeping’ to watch Copa America after glamorous Colombia supporter in bold outfit goes viral
FANS suddenly reckon they can Copa without sleep – after an exotic Colombian supporter went viral.
Football lovers are ditching kip to watch the Copa America overnight, but are still dreaming… of Colombia going all the way!
The fan in feathery headwear stunned viewers as she was interviewed in a colourful but minimal outfit – just blue and yellow strips covering her modesty.
Her beaming smile became even wider as Colombia saw off Panama 5-0 to reach the semi-finals in the USA.
Now her heroes face Brazil’s shock conquerors Uruguay on Thursday for the right to meet Argentina or Canada in next Monday’s final – with all games starting at 1am.
At one stage, she was shaking her stuff – and wiggling much more than her hips – as she chatted happily.
And her feathery performance had more than just night owls in a flap.
One fan reacted: “Guess I’ll stop sleeping at midnight just to watch the Copa America.”
Another sheepish but not sleepish supporter admitted: “Already did that – am watching now.”
A third posted: “We sleep at 8am brother.”

Many admirers joked their international allegiance had now switched – although earlier in the tournament a bikini-wearing Ecuador follower had the same effect!
“We’re all Colombians now,” said one.
And when another wrote “I love Colombia” he got the instant reply: “We all do.”
In fact, on the pitch as well as online, the South American nation has provided the star of the tournament so far.
Ex-Everton midfielder James Rodriguez has dazzled for the feathered female fan’s favourite team.
The former Real Madrid playmaker, 32, who is now with Brazilians Sao Paulo, has conjured an incredible renaissance after slipping out of Europe’s top leagues.
And his penalty plus two assists in the opening 41 minutes against Panama on Saturday made history.
No other player has directly contributed to three goals in the first half of a Copa America tie.
Another feather in the cap for the one-time £63million hero!
