Japan has best exploited the numerical superiority of Colombia by winning the narrow 2-1 result at Mordovia Arena.

It was a match with a level of liking and a beautiful football featured by both teams, but that penalty of the first few minutes has greatly penalized Colombia that played almost the whole game with a lesser player.
The instant took place in 3 minutes when Carlos Sancez touches the ball and the referee goes for the red card. Three minutes later was Borussia Dortmund’s Kagawa who unblocked the score from the penalty spot. But Colombia was the team that made the law behind the scoring suffered, playing racing spirit and attacking with a lot of strength.
The technical ability is evident and the ball went just like a smart free kick from Quintero’s shot from the right side. Colombian talent hits a low ball as the wall leaps in the air equalizing the score. But after the break it was Japan that dominated the game and after some good opportunities he scored the goal from corner kick thanks to Osako’s header. Colombia was very tired of reacting and should miss this match for the red card that has conditioned him extensively./Flashsport24
