FT: Uzbekistan 1-3 Colombia
Uzbekistan’s manager Fabio Cannavaro has become only the fourth individual in history to have won a Ballon d'Or and participated in a World Cup as both a player and a manager, joining Franz Beckenbauer, Oleg Blokhin, and Marco van Basten in achieving this milestone.

I think we've seen the best two assists of the tournament so far with Colombia's first and third goals.
Nick, West Midlands
Absolutely brilliant from Hernandez. Doesn’t give up so late on in the game, wins the ball and plays the perfect cross, great to see.

Can't believe that's the first round of fixtures done and dusted.
FT: Uzbekistan 1-3 Colombia
Here's how Group K looks after the first round of games.
Colombia will fancy taking top spot.

And that is that, it's three points for Colombia in their opening match.
They'll be hard to stop.

Jaminton Campaz gets the goal but it is all about the work down the right hand side from Hernandez.
I thought he was going to keep it there in the corner and waste some time.
Absolutely pinpoint delivery for Campaz, and it's a good header, he still has to finish it.
Outstanding from Hernandez.

Goodness me!
Bekhruz Karimov absolutely thunders one off the crossbar. Almost snapped it in half.
Jaminton Campaz (90+9 mins)
Game over!
A really brilliant noise in this stadium as Jaminton Campaz plants his header low into the bottom corner and the three points are secure.
But that goal doesn't happen if it's not for Cucho Hernandez's hard work down the right and his pinpoint cross.

Nope. It's really poor again.

And now Uzbekistan have a free-kick.
Can they finally get that delivery right?

There's no way Colombia should be facing this kind of pressure.
You cannot keep giving encouragement to a team that has got nothing to lose.
I'm sure they will be frustrated as a team that they have not been able to keep control of the game because the game was done.

Two minutes to go and still Uzbekistan come forward.

Uzbekistan may well go on to lose here but they can take plenty of positives from this second half.
It's been chalk and cheese from the first.

Changes for both sides as Luis Diaz makes way for Andres Gomez.
For Uzbekistan, Eldor Shomurodov is replaced by Igor Sergeev.

That's a big opportunity for Akmal Mozgovoy.
He'll be disappointed he hasn't hit the target from there.
Uzbekistan look like they believe they can go and get an equaliser.
Uzbekistan 1-2 Colombia
Farrukh Sayfiev sends in a really dangerous low cross from the left and it almost finds Eldor Shomurodov at the far post but Colombia do enough.
Uzbekistan 1-2 Colombia
We're into eight minutes of added time at the end of this one.
Uzbekistan have Colombia pegged back.
Uzbekistan 1-2 Colombia
More tidy play from Uzbekistan opens up an opportunity for a shot.
It's Akmal Mozgovoy who it opens up for just inside the box but he can't hit the target.
Chance!

Diaz restores Colombia's lead, before Jaminton Campaz adds a late third
Colombia made a winning return to the World Cup by defeating debutants Uzbekistan, with former Liverpool forward Luis Diaz and Crystal Palace defender Daniel Munoz among the goalscorers.
After failing to qualify for the 2022 competition, Colombia secured a victory at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City to move top of Group K.
Munoz scored the first goal with a superb volley at full stretch when he connected with a fine pass forwards from Diaz, who had earlier hit the post.
Uzbekistan, coached by Italian World Cup-winning defender Fabio Cannavaro, equalised in the 60th minute through Abbosbek Fayzullaev's close-range header after Colombia goalkeeper Camilo Vargas had parried Eldor Shomurodov's effort.
But the South Americans quickly regained their lead with Diaz's strike going in despite Utkir Yusupov in the Uzbekistan goal getting two hands to the ball.
Uzbekistan, 50th in the world rankings, nearly made it 2-2, but Akmal Mozgovoy curled a shot just wide in the 90th minute, before Colombia substitute Jaminton Campaz headed in a third goal late on.
There was still time for Uzbekistan's Jakhongir Urozov to hit the crossbar as Colombia took the three points.
For Diaz, who helped Liverpool win the Premier League in 2024-25 before moving to Bayern Munich in a £65.5m move last summer, his goal was his first in a World Cup.
It came after an excellent first season at Bayern, in which he scored 15 goals and provided 14 assists to help them win the German league and cup double.
Portugal drew 1-1 with DR Congo in the group's other game.
Uzbekistan face Portugal on Tuesday (18:00 BST), before Colombia take on DR Congo (Wednesday, 03:00 BST).
