A COLOMBIA fan has gone viral after she sent a message to her team's talisman James Rodriguez.
Wendy Sanchez, 24, has attracted attention on social media during the Copa America due to her daring outfits.
It had fans joking they would forgo sleep to watch the Copa America to catch a glimpse of her latest get-up.

The winner of the tie will play either world champions Argentina in the final or Canada - who are managed by another former Leeds manager, Jesse Marsch.
Now, in a resurfaced video, Wendy was asked if she wanted to send a message to a member of the squad on Colombian TV.

"I took the risk of wearing it to a national team match. I didn't think it would attract so much attention."
Speaking a bit about her background, Wendy said: "I am a psychology student, I am 24 years old and I really like the Colombian national team."
Wendy's favourite player James Rodriguez has been enjoying a renaissance for Colombia.

After a spell at Olympiacos, he joined Brazilian side Sao Paulo on a free transfer.

It is the first time a player has been involved for three goals in the first half of a Copa America match in history.
