Osako broke the Colombian resistance with a flicked header

Colombia suffered the worst possible start to the game as they went a goal and a man down early on, only for Juan Quintero's sensational free-kick to draw them level.

A dogged performance followed, with plenty of fighting spirit as they looked to ensure they went home with a valuable point.

However, their resistance was eventually broken with 17 minutes left on the clock.

Substitute Keisuke Honda swung in a corner from the left and Osako rose highest to flick a header beyond David Ospina to send the 'Cafeteros' home empty handed.
