Ospina leads from the back for Colombia

• Ospina has made the third highest number of World Cup appearances for Colombia (eight)
• He played more minutes than anyone in the qualifiers, despite not being a first choice at Arsenal
• He has now gone two matches without conceding in Russia

By Alejandra Rueda with Colombia 

Strain. There is no other word for it. Colombia's Group H coordinate with Senegal was to be determined all the way. In any case, with neither group ready to state their predominance, it was the west Africans who appreciated the advantage of realizing that a 0-0 attract would be sufficient to seal their capability for the Round of 16. Then again, while it stayed goalless, the destiny of Los Cafeteros at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ would rely upon the outcome amongst Poland and Japan.

It took until the 74th moment for the gridlock to at last be broken. Yerry Mina jumped to head in the main objective of the diversion, and with that Colombia grabbed a valuable ticket to the second round appropriate out of their adversaries' hands.

Not out of the blue, Mina rose to the event in Russia. Be that as it may, he was not the only one. All through the match, and especially in the end arranges as The Lions of Teranga squeezed for an equalizer, David Ospina was shake strong for Colombia. Two first-half spares had just guaranteed that his group went into the break on even terms. What's more, better was to come later on, when two overcome mediations in two minutes by the goalkeeper had the Samara Arena cheering in appreciation.

Initially, Mbaye Niang's great right-footed shot was beaten away by Ospina in the 77th moment. At that point, following a corner, he wound up hindering the ball ideal on hold after Sadio Mane's header ricocheted towards objective off a Colombian protector.

Keeping the confidence – and clean sheets 

"Senegal gave it their everything until the specific end to assert capability, however luckily for us we could hang on," the Colombian goalkeeper told FIFA.

In a veritable win big or bust apparatus for the South American side, Ospina demonstrated his standard initiative and association in the Colombia objective. Be that as it may, saying this doesn't imply that everything was plain cruising. "You endure a considerable measure at the back, and significantly more so in such close diversions," he conceded. "Those of us at the back, the four or more Carlitos (Sanchez), stay concentrated on helping the group keep a perfect sheet. In these competitions, that is urgent."

Notwithstanding the massive obligation on his shoulders, the goalkeeper did not give the weight a chance to influence his execution. "We needed to keep confidence in our arrangement, that we could score at any minute," pronounced the Colombia No1.


Mina's objective came exactly at the opportune time. The Colombian fans, until then obviously apprehensive, burst into festivity and went ahead to cheer their legends home. However, while his partners celebrated before their loving open, Ospina did as such alone in his six-yard box, before the objective that he had so painstakingly ensured.

Be that as it may, don't question the delight he felt at having accomplished what his group had embarked to do. "[I'm] satisfied with the demeanor, the longing that this group dependably appear," he finished up.

Britain, led by five-objective forward Harry Kane, are next up for Los Cafeteros in the Round of 16. However the Colombian protection, with Ospina in this kind of shape, will be in no temperament to fear anybody.

Nagatomo: Japan have nothing to lose

• ​Japan squeezed through to the last 16 yesterday
• They will now face Belgium in Rostov
• Nagatomo assesses their chances and campaign thus far

By Hidetoshi Suzuki with Japan 

It is a rarity indeed that a thrashing closes in festivities, yet Japan yesterday developed as the special case to the run the show. In spite of the fact that the Samurai Blue lost 1-0 to Poland in Volgograd, their adventures prior in the crusade - and a better Fair Play focuses adjust than Senegal - saw them progress in front of the Poles and Lions of Teranga, both of whom sit higher in the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking.

For Yuto Nagatomo, who is playing in his third FIFA World Cup™ with Japan, that accomplishment of achieving the Round of 16 is more than deserving of celebrating in.

"The other three groups in the gathering have more quality than us and each amusement was troublesome," Nagatomo told FIFA.com. "The outcome (capability) is something we can be happy about."

Nagatomo knows superior to anything most not to underestimate such accomplishments. At Brazil 2014, he was a piece of a Japan group that fell at the primary obstacle after one draw and two annihilations. Anyway, what has the distinction been between that battle and this one?

"We recognize what we are prepared to do now, and we have played persistently," he said. "This time, each player has done the fundamental thing of continuing running until the finish of the diversion. Furthermore, we have been joined as a group. I imagine that is the fundamental motivation behind why we've experienced this time."

Gotten some information about his own improvement since 2014, he was more unobtrusive. "Specifically, I have not enhanced a great deal but rather I'm generally helped and upheld by my colleagues, and that feels superb," he said. "I might want to express gratitude toward them for that."

Japan will now confront Belgium, who sit an elevated third in the most recent World Ranking, on 2 July in Rostov. Nagatomo trusts it's a match Japanese fans should anticipate and relish, especially if the group keep on displaying the collaboration and diligent work he accepts has got them this far.

"It will be a hard match. Belgium are a superior group than us," he conceded evidently. "Be that as it may, Japan would now be able to play with certainty. We don't have anything to lose."

Silva lets his football do the talking

• ​Thiago Silva back at the heart of Brazil's side
• Defender was in international wilderness during qualifying
• Coach Tite has put faith in the 33-year-old

By Giancarlo Giampietro with Brazil

"How might it be that you're a star at your club but then not some portion of the Brazil group?" 

That was only one of the inquiries went for Thiago Silva on more than event amid his chance out of the Brazil group, in the beginning times of the qualifiers for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™, when Dunga was in control.

Any individual who saw the focal safeguard seal his side's 2-0 thrashing of Serbia in Moscow on Wednesday with an ordering close post header could have been excused for asking why that inquiry even must be asked in any case. Add to that his brilliant show at the back, which, as he reminded FIFA.com, is basically what he is there for, and his time of segregation from the national side turns out to be for all intents and purposes difficult to get it.

"I sense that it's a vocation well done, and not in light of the objective but rather in light of the fact that we're guarding great right now," said the middle half. "We played well again and we've gone another diversion without surrendering. What's more, when you score in a circumstance like that, it makes you considerably more glad."

A Seleção will go into their Round-of-16 tie with Mexico unbeaten in their last 14 coordinates and having lost just once in 24 since Tite assumed control as mentor, yielding only six objectives in that time. This group knows how to assault, and it additionally knows how to keep things tight at the back.

Looked with a rebellious Serbia side, Brazil picked ownership of the ball as the best type of safeguard. And in addition being simple on the eye, it was an approach that additionally guaranteed them a generally smooth ride in the principal half.

Things changed toward the beginning of the second half, be that as it may, as the Balkan side squeezed for an equalizer, pushing the Brazilians against the ropes for an awkward ten-minute spell. "That is global football for you," Silva clarified. "You know there will be a period when you will endure. The most imperative thing is that the group could do that."

Scattering the cynics 
Silva talked with head held high and shoulders loose, and not without justifiable reason: beside helping his side record a second back to back world finals win out of the blue since the gathering stage at South Africa 2010 and move into the last 16, he has likewise additionally solidified his place in the national group after his spell on the sidelines.

Despite the fact that he missed the semi-last thrashing to Germany in 2014, Silva still came in for feedback. Seeing him, the group chief, crying after the nerve-destroying punishment shootout win against Chile at the Mineirao wound up one of the characterizing pictures of a pained crusade.

All of a sudden, one of the best focus parts of his age was considered to be never again capable, which is the sort of thing that can occur in a nation where football is viewed as significantly more than a diversion.

Furthermore, it was on that repeating subject – the absence of confidence in his capacities that had obstinate him from that point forward – that he talked at a public interview in England amid Brazil's arrangements for Russia 2018: "When you don't win, you get called a disappointment."

He included: "That is how I am [an enthusiastic person], yet the most critical thing is that it's never influenced me on the pitch. I endeavor to be as engaged as I would so be able to I can carry out my business to the best of my capacities."

The feeling in plain view in Moscow on Wednesday was unadulterated happiness, yet communicated by somebody who knows extremely well that with regards to Brazil, elation can quickly offer approach to sadness.

That is the main clarification why a middle portion of his capacity came to spend such a long time in the wild, a situation that Tite step by step tended to, with evident advantages. At long last, that alarming inquiry has gotten a decided answer.

Germany have been thumped out of the World Cup after a 2-0 thrashing to South Korea in Kazan.

Germany have been thumped out of the World Cup after a 2-0 thrashing to South Korea in Kazan. 

The 2014 champions have been wiped out at the gathering stages and neglect to achieve the quarter finals for just the second time in their history.

South Korea led the pack three minutes into stoppage time when Young Gwon-Kim completed from short proximity, just to see the objective chalked off for offside and later granted after VAR survey.

Germany tossed everything forward looking for the objectives they expected to make due, with goalkeeper Manuel Neuer playing upfield. They paid the cost when Heung-Min Son pursued down a long ball and tucked it into an unfilled net to anchor a celebrated win for his side in spite of the reality they were additionally leaving the opposition.

Mexico, who vanquished Germany 1-0 in their opening diversion, join assemble champs Sweden in the last 16 in spite of losing 3-0 to the Scandinavians.

Germany's leave implies that the holders have been thumped out at the gathering stage in four of the last five rivalries, following France, Italy and Spain in 2002, 2010 and 2014 individually.

The most notable absentees were Chelsea keeper Willy Caballero and Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero, perhaps for different reasons.

Caballero paid the price for his horror show in the 3-0 loss to Croatia last time out, while Aguero appeared to have been disciplined for publicly criticising Sampaoli after that second game.

There was a lot of speculation that Sampaoli had little say in the five changes made overall or the switch to a 4-4-2.

For the vast majority of the crowd were all Argentina fans, making the kind of racket that would inspire any team to victo

Nigeria appeared to freeze on the big occasion in the first half and Messi didn’t hesitate to capitalise.

It also helped that they were awarded the spot kick for Javier Mascherano pulling back Leon Balogun at a corner, soon after the restart. It settled their nerves and dented the confidence of the Argentina players.
Suddenly Messi was being negated and the legions of Argentina fans became a hindrance rather than a help as they began to turn on their players with every misplaced pass or shot.

Looking dangerous on the counter attack, substitute Odion Igahlo missed a glorious chance to secure the win by dragging a shot wide with the goal at his mercy.

For a brief moment, it looked like Nigeria might get a second penalty when Marcos Rojo headed the ball onto his own hand, but referee Cuneyt Cakir rightly said no after watching a VAR replay.

Igahlo still had time to see another shot saved by keeper Franco Armani and it proved costly as Rojo made a dramatic late impact.

For most by far of the group were all Argentina fans, making the sort of racket that would rouse any group to triumph.

Nigeria seemed to solidify on the huge event in the principal half and Messi didn't falter to underwrite.

Thundered on by his dearest supporters and maybe strengthened by Argentina legend Diego Maradona's quality in the stands, Messi ran Nigeria worn out.

Previous Chelsea midfielder Mikel John Obi did his best to scare him at an opportune time by hindering an early keep running with an unrefined test, however it had no impact.

For a short minute, it looked like Nigeria may get a second punishment when Marcos Rojo headed the ball onto his own particular hand, yet ref Cuneyt Cakir appropriately said no in the wake of viewing a VAR replay.

By Giancarlo Giampietro with Brazil

The tattoo on Philippe Coutinho's left arm bears a basic message: "Dream constantly". It is a short expression that perfectly totals up the determination that Brazil expected to attract on their emotional 2-0 triumph over Costa Rica on Friday in Saint Petersburg.

On an individual level, in any case, the three words additionally flawlessly epitomize Coutinho's profession in football. The assaulting midfielder has picked a proper minute to abruptly become the dominant focal point for his nation. "It's something that is in me: never surrender, whatever you're experiencing," he revealed to FIFA when addressed about the tattoo. "The match today was evidence of that."

You could be excused for pondering precisely which hindrances life has laid in the way of a player who first shot to acknowledgment in the English Premier League and is currently featuring for Barcelona. To be sure, life appears to be ruddy for the midfielder, and much more so having assumed a vital part in Brazil's begin to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia with two objectives in two recreations.

In any case, saying this doesn't imply that that Coutinho's street to the best has not taken some surprising turns.

A disconnected voyage 
The assaulting midfielder left Brazil when he was still just youthful, when Inter Milan achieved an arrangement with Vasco de Gama to acquire him to Italy 2008. At the time Coutinho was still only 16 years of age, in this way expecting to hold up two years previously having the capacity to sign as an expert and play at his new club. He never genuinely settled in Milan and, following a season on advance at Espanyol, he marked for Liverpool in 2013. The rest, as it's been said, is history.

In any case, it was a story that was at first just played out in club football. Coutinho relentlessly rose to unmistakable quality with the Reds, however not rapidly enough to gain a place in the national squad for Brazil's home World Cup in 2014. In the mean time Neymar, a previous universal colleague at youth level, was at that point well while in transit to turning into a national icon.

As yet coming back from foot damage, the Paris Saint-Germain striker has had a troublesome begin to the current year's competition in Russia – consequently the genius' tears at the full-time shriek on Friday. Yet, as Neymar works his way back to full wellness, Coutinho has developed as Brazil's key man.

Seleção's sparkling star 
To start with came his heavenly hit in the draw with Switzerland, a trademark twisting exertion from the edge of the punishment zone. The appear differently in relation to the complete for his second objective, a toe-jab from short proximity against Costa Rica, couldn't have been more prominent. "It was the way it must be hit," he laughed. "It worked out. Having opened the scoring we at that point developed, so it's implied that the objective was more critical as well."

Coutinho's extravagant festivals on the field appear differently in relation to his timidity before the mouthpiece. For the second successive diversion, he was picked as the Budweiser Man of the Match. However it doesn't appear to trouble him that he has scored two objectives and, in truth, has acted the hero of a group that is battling before objective. Somewhere down in the entrails of the Saint Petersburg Stadium, he afresh paid tribute to his partners.

Prior in the week, in Sochi, Coutinho was asked whether he should as of now be considered as a standout amongst other players on the planet. "I don't generally like discussing myself," he answered. "It's not something that I'm contemplating. I'd rather leave other individuals to discuss that. I'm centered around getting ready, enhancing and doing my best for A Seleção."

"Cheerful to get this prize once more, however the win was the most critical thing," he said following the Costa Rica coordinate. "We endured straight up until the end, however it was merited."

The triumph implies that an assuaged Brazil squad can even now hope against hope. We can however ponder about Coutinho's own particular dreams, yet one thing is for sure: at Russia 2018, he is as of now up there with the plain best.

Also, that was precisely what they did against Tite's side for expansive parts of Sunday evening in Rostov. At last, a 1-1 draw did not precisely come as an amazement.

There were events, notwithstanding, when Brazil found a route through the Swiss bar, as you may anticipate from a side containing Marcelo, Philippe Coutinho and Neymar, a capable trio who joined to great impact down one flank specifically: the left.

But then even on Sunday and without their star names very being taking care of business, A Seleção still consolidated to make the sort of openings they required on the off chance that they would win. What's more, it was one such opening that prompted Coutinho's staggering strike.

The trio represent a danger to any group. "Them three are presumably among the ten best players on the planet," said Brazil midfielder Renato Augusto in discussion with FIFA. One of his side's best entertainers on the night, Augusto went ahead as a second-half substitute in Rostov, opening into the left side, with Coutinho moving somewhere else.

Notwithstanding when the going is intense, the plain best players can influence football to look a basic diversion. Coutinho's portrayal of his objective is a case of that: "The safeguard cleared the ball and when it came to me I chose I would shoot. I made a touch of room for myself and hit it", he said subsequent to getting the Budweiser Man of the Match grant.

While that record makes his ponder objective sound anything besides noteworthy, the truth of the matter is that it originated from the slightest obvious shot that Brazil made throughout the night. In the last ten minutes alone, they cut out a string of respectable openings, and neglected to change over any of them.

Tite later distinguished tension as a key factor in his side's wayward wrapping up. "It's just normal," said Augusto. "We've been laboring for a long time for this, so's will undoubtedly influence you a bit. In any case, Switzerland clearly merited it and they played their amusement as well."

In the midfielder's view, one of the determinations Brazil can make from the night is that they have to blend it up and furthermore look to the correct flank. "We need to take advantage of Willian, another brilliant player, with the goal that we don't wind up unsurprising," he stated, before indicating the effect Dani Alves' damage has had as an afterthought. "He gave us a great deal of adjust. Danilo has recently come into the side and getting to holds with our style. He's exceptionally solid, however, and we can do some investigating with him as well."

"Equalization" is an idea near Tite's heart. His course of action includes assaulting from anyplace and from each conceivable edge. All things considered, should A Seleção come up against another protection as strong as Switzerland's amid whatever remains of the competition, they will dependably have that outlet down the left to abuse.
