🧠 Match Summary

vs

Colombia booked their place in the round of 16 with a disciplined 1-0 victory over Ghana in Kansas City, with Jhon Arias breaking the deadlock as early as the 14th minute to set the tone for a commanding Colombian performance. Los Cafeteros dominated possession at 61% and unleashed 20 shots — eight on target — leaving Ghana goalkeeper with a heroic seven saves to his name just to keep the scoreline respectable.

Ghana, who managed only eight shots and failed to register a single effort on target, were largely kept at arm's length throughout. Under referee Clément Turpin's watch, the Black Stars picked up three yellow cards in a frustrated display, but Colombia's control was never truly threatened as they advanced to the next round.
