- 5' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 10' Senegal international Sadio Mane has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Salif Sane suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' Senegal is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 30' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 31' The crowd applauds James Rodriguez as he leaves the pitch. Luis Muriel steps in for Colombia.
- 36' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Jose Pekerman will be considering his options from the bench.
- 41' Senegal are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Colombia backline.
- 45' Johan Mojica catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 45.
- 50' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 51' The referee calls foul for Mbaye Niang. He receives a Yellow card.
- 56' Senegal are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Colombia's shape.
- 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Keita Balde made 496 appearances and scored 25 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 66' Both keepers have barely been tested. Senegal and Colombia are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 71' Senegal seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 74' Against the run of play, Yerry Mina has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 74' Youssouf Sabaly makes way for Moussa Wague at the 74 minute mark. A tactical switch from Senegal.
- 79' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Senegal that had 125 games and scored 19 goals.
- 80' Another substitution for Senegal to replace Keita Balde by Moussa Konate on 80 minute.
- 83' The supporters are chanting for Jefferson Lerma. He replaces Mateus Uribe on 83 minute.
- 86' The Senegal bench stirs into life. Mbaye Niang is withdrawn and Diafra Sakho gets his opportunity.
- 89' Radamel Falcao makes way for Miguel Borja at the 89 minute mark. A tactical switch from Colombia.
