    Uruguay will have to make changes soon. They have to respond and respond quickly.

    If the opener was a stunning individual effort, that was a really well-worked team goal from Colombia.

    GOAL Colombia! And it’s that man James again. It was a great cross from Armero and Cuadrado heads back across for James to tap home.

    Poor corner from Cuadrado, easily headed clear by Rios.
