Colombia vs Ghana

Colombia vs Ghana in the Round of 32 finished 1-0 to Colombia on July 3 in Kansas City, settled by a Jhon Arias goal in the 13th minute, assisted by substitute Luis Suarez, who had only been on the pitch since the 8th minute.
Colombia had advanced from Group K as winners, going unbeaten with a 3-1 win over Uzbekistan, a 1-0 win over DR Congo and a scoreless draw with Portugal. Ghana finished third in Group L, beating Panama 1-0 on a 95th-minute winner, drawing England 0-0 and losing to Croatia 1-2, but advanced anyway as one of the tournament's best third-placed teams. Ghana's knockout debut showed genuine defensive organization but could not find a way past a Colombian side content to protect a single-goal lead. The result kept Colombia's run alive for one more round before a penalty shootout loss to Switzerland eventually ended their tournament in the last 16.
