Columbia is Useless, even after Ospina made a great save, they still blew it. Goodbye Yerry Mina.

Love it!!! Justice served.
The difficulties of statistical thinking describes a puzzling limitation of our mind: our excessive confidence in what we believe we know, and our apparent inability to acknowledge the full extent of our ignorance and the uncertainty of the world we live in.

Ospina please stay in Russia and don’t ever come back to Arsenal ... that was an easy save

Colombia was their own worst enemy. The got the advantage and wasted it. Ospina was weak on his right, so as soon as he saves. It was important for the next Colombia penalty taker to score. He over cooked it and blasted it at the bar. Bacca had been poor all game so no surprises there.

"History shows that this club has had very few strikers like him. I do not know if there has ever been anyone like him before. What I do know is that Barcelona should erect a statue for him. Samuel was a fundamental player here in recent years and was key to all of the titles that the team won."

Damn!! Fantastic save by Pickford.. that left hand strong pa.. Kudos to England for advancing..

If Colombia was focused on playing football from 1st min rather than fighting, they probably would have won in regulation time..

This England team is average sha.. well organized but lack substance.. very lucky to be in a weaker bracket. Croatia is arguably the only team in that bracket that will cause them real problems..
