Colombia hold Portugal 0–0, last 16 within reach
Colombia ground out a 0–0 draw with Portugal in their second Group K match at the World Cup on Monday, a result that keeps your team top of the group after the opening 3–1 win over Uzbekistan (1). One more positive result and the round of 16 is booked. Diogo Dalot came on for Portugal in the second half, and his performance was solid enough that Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has reportedly told INEOS to block any summer sale of the right-back despite outside interest (1). João Cancelo started ahead of him and kept his place for most of the match. Your backline held firm throughout, and Lorenzo's side now control their own fate heading into the final group fixture.
