Former MLS star to coach Columbia
Former Colombia star Leonel Alvarez, who played five seasons in MLS with Dallas and New England,
was named Colombia's new national team coach, replacing the popular Hernan Dario Gomez, who quit
last month after being involved in an incident in which he struck a woman at a Bogota bar.
Alvarez, 46, was Gomez's assistant and then the national team's interim coach after Gomez, who
apologized for the incident, resigned on Aug.
