    Colombia 31 Uzbekistan

    Colombia did what good teams do: absorbed a wobble and won going away. Munoz opened the scoring before the break, Uzbekistan levelled through Fayzullaev just past the hour, and for a moment the Azteca held its breath. Then Diaz took the game by the throat — the architect of the first, the scorer of the second — and Campaz's stoppage-time third turned a contest into a statement. Sixty-one percent of the ball, fifteen shots: control, then a flourish. A first win banked, and a reminder of who carries this side.

    Full time · The Report Patience, then the breakthrough

    Colombia 10 DR Congo

    For seventy-six minutes Colombia did everything but score. They took sixty-four percent of the ball and twenty shots to eight, an expected-goals line of 1.03 to 0.39 — total command of a game that refused to reward it. Then Daniel Munoz met Juan Quintero's delivery at the back post, and the afternoon finally tipped. It was a test of a favourite's nerve as much as its quality: patient, controlled, one lapse from dropping a point it had bossed. In the end they took the chance the performance was owed. Job done, with the finishing left to sharpen another day.

    Full time · The Report Everything but the goal, and a flag

    Colombia 00 Portugal

    Colombia battered the door and it would not open. Twenty-four shots, an expected-goals line of 1.63 to 0.69, and a Portugal side ranked fourth in the field hanging on for dear life — this was as one-sided as a goalless draw gets. They thought they had finally broken through deep in stoppage, only for Davinson Sanchez's header to be ruled out for offside in the ninety-second. Portugal's goalkeeper made six saves; the flag did the rest. A point that feels like two dropped, and a performance that deserved far more than the scoreline gave it.

    Full time · The Report Enough, and never in doubt

    Colombia 10 Ghana

    Colombia controlled this from the fourteenth minute and only the scoreline kept it interesting. Jhon Arias struck early, Luis Díaz had a second ruled out for offside, and from there Colombia simply squeezed — an expected-goals line of 2.18 to 0.26, twenty shots, Ghana's goalkeeper forced into seven saves. It should have been three or four; one was enough. A composed, professional night's work. Colombia stroll into the last sixteen.

    Full time · The Report The better side, out on penalties

    Colombia 00 Switzerland

    Colombia will feel this one for a long time. They created the better chances, forced the saves, and carried the game to Switzerland for two hours — and had nothing to show for it when it mattered most. Goalless into a shootout, they lost their nerve where the Swiss kept theirs, beaten four to three from the spot. There is no crueler way to leave a World Cup: the better team on the night, on a plane home because a shootout does not reward the run of play. Colombia are out.

Friendship blends realized national co-starts with a club-chemistry bonus, so a settled XI and a club-spine squad both score high. Near 100 the total eases so the most-settled squads stay separated rather than all tying out. Gold lines trace the spine: teammates who share a club right now.
