Édier Ocampo

International career Ocampo has been part of the Colombian under-20 set up since 2021, and was called up for the 2022 Maurice Revello Tournament. During the penalty shoot-out following a 0–0 draw with Venezuela, Ocampo celebrated after scoring his penalty by dancing, a move reminiscent of Colombian national team player Yerry Mina, who did the same in a penalty shoot-out loss to Argentina in the 2021 Copa América. Ocampo's goal had made the score 4–3, with Colombia only needing to score one more goal to win the game, however they missed their next three, and Ocampo received criticism for celebrating prematurely. He was then part of the squad for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup, and was injured after a strong challenge by Miguel Monsalve before the group stage game against Japan, with compatriot Devan Tanton being reported as his replacement. However, he played in the game before being replaced in the closing minutes by Tanton.

Style of play Ocampo has listed former Colombian international Juan Camilo Zúñiga as his idol, while listing teammate Dorlan Pabón as a player he looks to for inspiration.
