Diaz shines as Colombia beat Uzbekistan 3-1

Colombia winger Luis Diaz dazzled at a raucous Azteca Stadium ​as his side marked their return ‌to the World Cup with a 3-1 Group K win over tournament debutants Uzbekistan on Wednesday.

Colombia, who missed ​the 2022 tournament in Qatar, struggled ​in the early stages but broke ⁠through in the 41st minute when a ​brilliant ball lifted into the area by ​Diaz was hooked in on the turn by Daniel Munoz, who had ghosted in behind the ​defence.

Uzbekistan equalised on the hour mark ​after a shot from striker Eldor Shomurodov was spilled ‌by ⁠goalkeeper Camilo Vargas and Abbosbek Fayzullaev was on the line to head in. However, Diaz restored Colombia's lead five minutes ​later by slotting ​the ⁠ball in from the left of the area.

Substitute Jaminton Campaz headed ​in a third in stoppage ​time ⁠and Colombia top Group K after Portugal and Democratic Republic of Congo drew 1-1. ⁠The ​South Americans face DR ​Congo on Tuesday in Guadalajara after Uzbekistan play Portugal in ​Houston.

Group standings

Here's how the groups stack up after the first round of match days.

FT: Colombia secures the three points in a tight end to first round of matches.

Wow, not many would have expected that game, maybe the result, but a great showing from Uzbekistan. 

Colombia is ultimately too strong and gets off to a good start in the World Cup. 

Uzbekistan will surely be a threat to the rest of group K. 

COLOMBIA SEAL THE DEAL !!!

Jaminto Campaz gets on the end of a great cross into the box and heads into the net. 

Cucho Hernandez just doesn't give up and keeps going, even after getting taken down send an excellent delivery into the box to secure the win for Colombia. 

90+ 6' Uzbekistan still pushing

They've forced Colombia to camp in front of their own goal, but can they get a shot away? 

They are gifted a free kick as Munoz makes a silly challenge in front of his goal to gift Uzbekistan a free kick. 

Another wasted opportunity as the set piece goes long. 

90 + 3' more subs

Colombia: 

On Andres Gomes,  Kevin Castano

OFF: Jhon Arias, Luis Diaz

Uzbekistan: 

On: Igor Sergeev

Off: Eldor Shomurodov

90' Mozgovoy misses golden opportunity

Oh no, could that be their chance? 

Akmal Mozgovoy gets a golden chance in the box, and he has time and space to get his shot away, but he just can't keep it down as he tries to curl it into the top corner. 

90' 8 minutes added on
89' Too high, Too far Uzbekistan missed opportunity

The set pieces just have not been Uzbekistan's forte today. 

Just can't seem to hit the target and find teammates.
