FIFA WC 2026: Diaz Lifts Colombia Past Uzbekistan 3-1 In Group K
FIFA World Cup: Colombia celebrated their return to the FIFA World Cup with a thrilling 3-1 victory over debutants Uzbekistan here at Mexico City Stadium. Luis Diaz was the star attraction after expertly setting up Daniel Munoz's first-half opener before securing the victory in the second stanza.
Prior to Thursday's match, Colombia, who are back at the World Cup after missing out in 2022 for their World Cup, had lost their opening match in four of their six FIFA World Cup appearances, including a 2-1 defeat by Japan at Russia 2018.
The end-to-end clash, which was sealed by a 99th-minute header from substitute Jaminton Campaz, ensured the first round of group-stage matches in North America ended on a high note. With Portugal being held to a draw by Congo, Colombia have now taken early control of Group K.
