Colombia scraped through the first phase, finishing in third position following a goalless draw with Peru.
Their placing sets up a last-eight meeting with Group B winners Argentina, to be played on Friday, and the star thinks that taking on one of the tournament favourites is a great opportunity.
"Everyone knows that they have good players, but Colombia intends to play," James said at a press conference on Monday.
"I never want to play bad but sometimes it's not how you want. Friday is a great match to try and make things better. We always want to win. There are still four more days to talk, but there are always things that can be improved."
