Colombia beat Uzbekistan 3-1 in a World Cup group-stage clash at Estadio Banorte. The visitors opened the scoring when Daniel Munoz Mejia finished Luis Diaz’s pass at 00:40, giving Colombia the lead. Diaz doubled the lead with a goal at 01:05 after a Puerta assist, and Jaminton Leandro Campaz capped the win at 01:38 following a Cucho Hernandez pass.

Uzbekistan struck back through Abbosbek Fayzullaev at 01:00:18 to make it 1-1, showing resilience after going behind. The equalizer briefly shifted momentum before the half-time break and set the stage for Colombia’s late-game control.

From a shooting perspective, Colombia finished with four shots on target from eight attempts, while Uzbekistan had two on target from nine attempts. Uzbekistan also produced a high volume of attempts, but seven of their shots were off target, limiting their finishing impact.

Set-piece activity was relatively balanced, with Colombia earning four corners to Uzbekistan’s three. There were no red cards, and both sides took one yellow card, but Uzbekistan committed more fouls (14) than Colombia (11).

Tactically, the match hinged on Colombia’s finishing efficiency and Diaz’s decisive involvement—one assist and one goal, plus setup play for Campaz. Uzbekistan’s compact block and higher foul count indicate a disruptive approach that yielded moments of pressure but failed to convert into goals after conceding the second. For bettors, the data underscores Colombia’s ability to convert chances in key moments and maintain attacking tempo after halftime.
