Miami: Colombia and Portugal played out a tense 0-0 draw in their FIFA World Cup 2026 Group K clash in Miami, a result that confirmed Colombia as group winners while Portugal settled for second place.
Colombia entered the match on six points and needed only a draw to top the group, while Portugal, on four points, required a win to secure first place. This is Colombia's first-ever goalless draw in a World Cup match.
Davinson Sanchez thought he had won it for Colombia in the 90th minute when he headed home, but the goal was ruled out after the assistant referee flagged him marginally offside.
Jhon Cordoba, who was handed a start for this match, came close to an early breakthrough for Colombia, heading over the bar inside the opening minute before being denied by a sharp one-handed save from Diogo Costa moments later.
