The two teams had met in three previous matches, most recently in a 2014 FIFA World Cup group stage game, won by Colombia 4โ1.
In the third minute, Carlos Sรกnchez blocked Shinji Kagawaโs 20-yard shot with his arm and the referee pointed to the penalty spot before showing the midfielder a straight red card. After lengthy protests, Sรกnchez eventually left the field and Kagawa slotted the penalty into the bottom right corner of the net. Josรฉ Pรฉkerman then replaced Juan Cuadrado with Wรญlmar Barrios at the half-hour mark, and an equaliser arrived nine minutes later, from a Juan Fernando Quintero free kick, shot low under the jumping wall which the goalkeeper failed to keep out.In the second half, David Ospina dived full length to his left to stop Takashi Inuiโs curling 20-yard shot. Yuya Osako then headed the ball into the far corner of the net from a Keisuke Honda corner from the left. With 13 minutes left, James Rodrรญguezโs strike from inside the box was turned over the crossbar by the outstretched leg of Osako.
Quintero became the first Colombia player in history to score at two World Cups. Japan became the first Asian team to beat a side from South America in the competitionโs history.Honda became the first player from an Asian nation to provide an assist in three different World Cup tournaments since 1966.
