Campaz asks fans to stop threats after Colombia exit

Campaz speaks out after threats

Colombia are out of the World Cup, and Jaminton Campaz is paying a heavy price. The Rosario Central forward missed a key shot in extra time against Switzerland, and the fallout has turned ugly. Campaz went public, devastated, asking fans to stop the harassment (1). He described himself as "compungido", broken up, about the miss that ended your team's tournament.

Switzerland end Colombia's run

Switzerland beat Colombia to reach the quarterfinals for the first time since 1954 (2). A brutal way to go out. Your team had the path, a winnable last-16 tie, a Swiss side missing Manzambi and Vargas, and a real shot at matching that 2014 quarterfinal run. Instead, it slipped away in extra time, with Campaz's miss becoming the image of the night.
