But the hosts battled back to go 2-1 up by half-time with goals from Arturo Vidal and Alexis Sanchez.
However, Colombia grabbed a draw at the death in the World Cup qualifier through former Chelsea and Manchester United striker Radamel Falcao.
After two games, Colombia sit third in the 10-team qualification group behind only Brazil and Argentina.
Lerma takes his goals tally for the season to three, having netted for Cherries in Championship games against Blackburn and Coventry.
