Colombia vs. France: Time, date, TV channel and how to watch today

Landover, Maryland—Sunday’s friendly at Northwest Stadium pits Colombia against France in the final dress rehearsal for both nations before this summer’s World Cup in North America. Kickoff is set for today, and viewers can find the match on their local TV listings.

Los Cafeteros arrive looking to rebound from Thursday’s 2-1 setback against Croatia in Orlando, their first defeat since March 2025. James Rodríguez, still the creative engine for his country at 34, will pull the strings alongside Liverpool winger Luis Díaz and Al Nassr striker Jhon Durán, a trio capable of troubling any back line.

France, ranked third globally, enter with wind in their sails after a 2-0 victory over Brazil in Massachusetts on Thursday. Kylian Mbappé and Liverpool forward Hugo Ekitike found the net in that win, and Les Bleus have not tasted defeat since last June’s Nations League semifinal loss to Spain. With momentum and depth across the pitch, Didier Deschamps’ side shapes as one of the tournament favorites.

On paper, France holds the edge in form and firepower, yet Colombia’s attacking flair ensures a compelling contest for neutrals. All eyes will be on Rodríguez and Díaz to spark a response and send their fans into the World Cup on a high note.
