World Cup replay. We are going to Fortaleza further match between | :00:36. | :00:45. | |
Brazil and Colombia. Ladies and gentlemen, please stand | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
for the Amazon of Colombia. The archipelago resilient anthem was | :00:52. | :00:59. | |
born in Fortaleza, and will be a moment to savour, but the Colombian | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
anthem is first. # Oh gloria inmarcesible | :01:02. | :01:13. | |
Oh jubilo inmortal # En surcos de dolores | :01:14. | :01:21. | |
el bien germina ya # La libertad sublime derrama las | :01:22. | :01:29. | |
auroras de su invencible luz # La humanidad entera | :01:30. | :01:46. | |
que entre cadenas gime # comprende las palabras del que | :01:47. | :01:57. | |
murio en la cruz. # # La humanidad entera | :01:58. | :02:07. | |
que entre cadenas gime # comprende las palabras del que | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
murio en la cruz. # And answer magnificently sung. There | :02:15. | :02:33. | |
are splashes of red throughout this stadium. But if you thought that was | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
good, enjoy this. # Ouviram do Ipiranga as margens | :02:38. | :02:59. | |
placidas # De um povo heroico o brado | :03:00. | :03:16. | |
retumbante # E o sol da Liberdade, em raios | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
fulgidos # Brilhou no ceu da Patria nesse | :03:19. | :03:25. | |
instante # Se o penhor dessa igualdade | :03:26. | :03:34. | |
Conseguimos conquistar com braco # forte, | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
Em teu seio, o Liberdade # Salve Salve | :03:38. | :03:48. | |
Brasil, um sonho intenso, # Es tu, Brasil, | :03:49. | :04:08. | |
O Patria amada # Dos filhos deste solo | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
Es mae gentil # Deitado eternamente em berco | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
esplendido That has become one of the great | :04:14. | :04:24. | |
sights and sounds in sport. What an atmosphere. Well, over the | :04:25. | :04:50. | |
last 12 months, Felipe Scolari has had five untouchables who played | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
every match of the federations cup campaign and every minute of this | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
World Cup, until today. Two of those five are right. Dani Alves is | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
dropped. Paulinho replaces Stanier. It has been said that they lack | :05:03. | :05:29. | |
mental strength. The psychologist has been called in. But Scolari | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
himself is not weak. He told the Brazilian press yesterday that they | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
could go to hell, his words, not mine. | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
The last time Brazil did not reach this stage in a World Cup was Italy | :05:44. | :05:53. | |
1990. Colombia have never played at this stage. And it has been a while | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
since a Spanish referee had any chance of taking charge of a major | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
tournament final. But Carlos Velasco Carballo must be in the running with | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
his country eliminated from this tournament so early. He also took | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
charge of Uruguay's win over England, and Bosnia-Herzegovina's | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
over Iran. Iago Silver and Mario Yepes, the two | :06:19. | :06:40. | |
captains. Length three preliminary free game of such importance. | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
Probably the last thing that the players out there wants to get | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
involved in. You certainly can't fault the sentiment. But it is | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
asking a lot before such important game to ask two skippers to make a | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
speech. Colombia haven't beaten Brazil in 23 years, and they have | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
never beaten them on Brazilian soil. Pekerman has switched from 4-2-3-1, | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
for the last game, but today they revert to one up front. | :07:16. | :07:24. | |
With five goals and two assists, James's stat is out of even Neymar. | :07:25. | :07:36. | |
He has doubled his international tally at this tournament. Martin | :07:37. | :07:44. | |
Keown, what an occasion. I had the pleasure of being at the last game, | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
and I feel half Brazilian in this incredible atmosphere. | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
What pressure. You have to love it. This tournament won't last much | :07:58. | :08:05. | |
longer. Just enjoy every moment of it. Colombia in the red shirt get | :08:06. | :08:12. | |
the game under way. Brazil have not lost a home match of | :08:13. | :08:26. | |
any description since 2002, and that game was played in this city, in | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
this stadium before its redevelopment for the World Cup, of | :08:34. | :08:41. | |
course. And here is Ospina in the Colombian goal. | :08:42. | :08:58. | |
In that number ten position, Rodriguez just exactly the same. It | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
is becoming a tournament of Number tens, with number nines not scoring | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
the goals they would have done in the past. He has five, Neymar has | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
four. Scolari has been so supportive of | :09:18. | :09:35. | |
his players up until now, I am surprised he has left Danny Alves | :09:36. | :09:37. | |
out. Maicon finding Paulinho. Yepes, the 38-year-old Colombian | :09:38. | :09:52. | |
captain. Neymar has lost it. He is with Roma now, Maicon. He | :09:53. | :10:25. | |
didn't really make an impact at Manchester city in his brief time | :10:26. | :10:26. | |
there. Straight back into Neymar, but Fred | :10:27. | :11:03. | |
and Neymar collide with each other. Then Cristian Zapata got involved, | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
and the Spanish referee has given a free kick. That was Zapata's | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
clearance. He panicked a little bit. David Luiz is also over it. We have | :11:15. | :11:49. | |
seen him on many a free kick for club and country. | :11:50. | :12:07. | |
The free kick doesn't trouble Ospina. I think that was just out of | :12:08. | :12:16. | |
his range. Just curls away from the goal. He loves these free kicks, but | :12:17. | :12:27. | |
not this time. Ospina with the long clearance downfield, that there has | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
been a foul, and it is a free kick to Brazil. | :12:34. | :12:46. | |
Maicon having a little run here at Armero. | :12:47. | :12:56. | |
I think it went out before the keeper touched it. | :12:57. | :13:14. | |
The first game in this World Cup that won't have felt like a home | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
game for Colombia. Every game Colombia have played up | :13:19. | :13:33. | |
to this point has felt like a home game because Colombian fans have | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
been in Brazil in their many thousands. Great fans, as well, we | :13:38. | :13:47. | |
saw them last night celebrating. Fernandinho can release Neymar here. | :13:48. | :13:56. | |
That is what Zapata is good at. He is really very quick and mobile. | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
Covers the ground, knows where the danger is. He has got to get to | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
Neymar early. Good defending. Neymar with the corner, and it is | :14:04. | :14:23. | |
dangerous, Thiago Silva has put Brazil in front! In the seventh | :14:24. | :14:34. | |
minute of the game. Neymar's corner, Thiago Silva at the back post. | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
Scolari celebrates, Brazil celebrates, 1-0 to the hosts. Great | :14:41. | :14:50. | |
start to the game. It was a teasing ball, should have been dealt with. | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
Just looking at it here, in and he ends up sending it in with his left | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
knee. The goalkeeper comes, goes back, just in off his thigh. Great | :15:03. | :15:10. | |
start. The man who has been having to justify his captaincy this week, | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
he ducked taking a penalty against Chile in the shoot out, and has been | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
heavily criticised for doing so. But he puts Brazil in front in the | :15:24. | :15:35. | |
quarterfinal. You Cuadrado thought he might have other free kick, he | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
doesn't. -- he might have had a free kick. Stunning start. Just what the | :15:42. | :15:59. | |
crowd needed, what they wanted. If Brazil needed something to settle | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
those nerves, they have got it. No tears in the anthem this time. That | :16:07. | :16:16. | |
is a foul by Oscar. On James Rodriguez. | :16:17. | :16:46. | |
James Rodriguez is over the ball. The captain is coming forward. | :16:47. | :17:02. | |
Colombia have four in the box, five now with James Rodriguez having left | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
the free kick duties to Fredy Guarin. He goes for it. For me, that | :17:08. | :17:19. | |
is too far away. He should be chipping that into the box. | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
Fantastic ball in, great improvisation from another | :17:24. | :17:32. | |
centre-half. He just feathered that in off his knee. Credited with a | :17:33. | :17:45. | |
goal against CHile in the round of 16. Thiago Silva, with the clearance | :17:46. | :18:02. | |
for Brazil. Taking on David Luiz. Ibarbo arriving. Out by Thiago | :18:03. | :18:10. | |
Silva. O has lost that on the edge of the penalty area. And that has | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
ruffled the side netting from Cuadrado. It is a corner kick. | :18:16. | :18:23. | |
Cuadrado is some player. Look at the pace he has. He hits that of his | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
left foot. And it came off Thiago Silva. Inches wide. That was well | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
spotted by the official. Good response by Colombia. Freddie Guarin | :18:37. | :18:46. | |
with this corner kick. Out comfortably by Fernandinho. | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
That was wasted by Zuniga. It has been a feature of this World Cup, | :18:52. | :19:01. | |
corner kicks that do not beat the first man. Good reaction from | :19:02. | :19:14. | |
Colombia. Marcelo with the throw-in. David Luiz finds Maicon. Paulinho. | :19:15. | :19:34. | |
Chile put result of a wire, having fallen behind. -- Chile took Brazil | :19:35. | :19:48. | |
to the wire. That'll be a free kick to Colombia. Neymar, in that central | :19:49. | :19:55. | |
position, when he starts to run at people, lovely to watch. Just giving | :19:56. | :20:03. | |
away another free kick. Interestingly, Oscar is on the right | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
of those three behind Fred, with Hulk on the left, and Neymar down | :20:11. | :20:18. | |
the middle. Gutierrez snapping at the heels of David Luiz. Good | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
pressure. Just letting him know that if he is going to take liberties on | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
the ball, he is going to be in there. Maicon. Oscar, couldn't find | :20:32. | :20:45. | |
Paulinho. Very comfortably cut out by Freddie Guarin. | :20:46. | :21:09. | |
That was a good block by David Luiz, because Zuni gal was charging | :21:10. | :21:18. | |
forward. And off the ball, James Rodriguez has been poleaxed. This | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
was Fernandinho and Cuadrado coming together. Fernandinho just checks | :21:25. | :21:39. | |
across him. Definite foul. Do you think they have worked out who the | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
danger man is? Without doubt. They will be all over him, that midfield. | :21:45. | :21:51. | |
Neymar was on the receiving end of some treatment from Chile. As soon | :21:52. | :21:58. | |
as one of their players has been kicked, they surround the referee, | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
Colombia. It shows you the togetherness that they have. The | :22:03. | :22:10. | |
free kick, looking for Gutierrez, who might just have got a touch on | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
that. He should just go and attack that. He steps away from it. Fred. | :22:17. | :22:30. | |
Wins a free kick. Paulinho lost his place in the side | :22:31. | :22:49. | |
to Fernandinho, back in today because of the suspension to Luiz | :22:50. | :23:00. | |
Gustavo. Cut out by Zapata. Taking on Neymar and Marcelo, and getting a | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
free kick. We know that Cuadrado can play. Look at him, he tries to put | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
it through his legs. Marcelo, giving away a free kick in the end. He has | :23:12. | :23:19. | |
had a tremendous tournament, Cuadrado. Brazil might break. Fred | :23:20. | :23:28. | |
wants it and get it. Paulinho gives it away. To the retreating Zuniga. | :23:29. | :23:41. | |
The mistake by Ibarbo. That might just be a corner kick. It is. Good | :23:42. | :23:56. | |
pace by Pablo Armero. Trying to get down this right-hand side. They will | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
need to do better from this corner kick, defensively. They do. That | :24:04. | :24:12. | |
first goal was the first assist of this World Cup for Neymar. The | :24:13. | :24:22. | |
referee wants a corner kick to be delayed. At first, it seemed to be | :24:23. | :24:33. | |
yet as. Now it is is a need and Paulinho. Neymar, on the corner. | :24:34. | :24:41. | |
1-0, Brazil. That was well out by yet there is. Cuadrado loses that in | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
a dangerous area. David Luiz, almost. The mistake from Cuadrado, | :24:47. | :24:53. | |
they cannot clear this, Colombia. And that was just too high for | :24:54. | :25:00. | |
Neymar. Real peril here for Colombia. Hulk getting to the byline | :25:01. | :25:08. | |
and pulling it back. David Luiz thought he was going to cash in at | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
the far post. This is Hulk, on his run. He has got better through the | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
tournament. He is starting to look the part now. Again, the goalkicker | :25:19. | :25:30. | |
will be taken by Zapata. -- the goal kick. | :25:31. | :25:42. | |
Paulinho is going to chase that. Maicon, for Brazil. And raised in | :25:43. | :26:09. | |
apology. Throw-in for Colombia. -- hand raised. Armero. The foot was | :26:10. | :26:28. | |
high from Ibarbo, it caught Maicon. It just brushed him, frankly. He is | :26:29. | :26:38. | |
up quickly. It just tickled him, didn't it? It could have been a lot | :26:39. | :26:51. | |
worse, couldn't it? Thiago Silva, the captain and goal-scorer, takes | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
the free kick. Armero with the challenge. Oscar, again. Hulk, great | :26:56. | :27:11. | |
chance, good save from Ospina. Ospina is there again. That is | :27:12. | :27:17. | |
better from Brazil. Hulk again, with a lovely 1-2. Marcelo, and Brazil | :27:18. | :27:25. | |
have won another corner kick. Colombia are on the rack. This might | :27:26. | :27:31. | |
be the best 20 minutes that Brazil have played in the tournament. | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
Again, it is Hulk, he hits it down, good save, Oscar, following up. | :27:37. | :27:48. | |
Another Neymar corner. Well out. By Ibarbo. Marcelo try to bring it down | :27:49. | :27:56. | |
and smashes it into yet there is. James Rodriguez making the run, and | :27:57. | :28:05. | |
Oscar has got back. Brilliant. The throw-in, quickly taken by Armero. | :28:06. | :28:10. | |
Maicon is quickly onto James Rodriguez. He has barely seen the | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
ball yet. He tries to get the cross in and it is volleyed away for a | :28:17. | :28:18. | |
Colombian throw-in. Hulk. He loves going down that | :28:19. | :28:51. | |
right-hand side, he hasn't really been able to. Colombia look rocked | :28:52. | :29:01. | |
by the early goal. They need a spell in the game, don't they? | :29:02. | :29:09. | |
Hits it down, takes some of the pace out of it. Neymar has been | :29:10. | :29:30. | |
brilliant, and Hulk in the last match was starting to do it. | :29:31. | :29:39. | |
Cuadrado immediately onto his feet and trying to break. Gutierrez is | :29:40. | :29:48. | |
square. Brilliant block. Thiago Silva might just have saved result | :29:49. | :29:52. | |
there, because it was practically three on one. And here is Neymar, | :29:53. | :30:02. | |
dancing away from Sanchez. Ospina is there. Yepes is down and stop the | :30:03. | :30:16. | |
play is end to end. Cuadrado should have taken it on a little bit | :30:17. | :30:17. | |
further. I love the way he won the ball, and | :30:18. | :30:30. | |
to his feet and was immediately off and running. You can't take your | :30:31. | :30:50. | |
eyes off him. If you put Falck -- Falcao in this team, what a team? | :30:51. | :31:00. | |
Cuadrado with his pace has demonstrated already that he can | :31:01. | :31:09. | |
cause problems. Neymar has seen a lot more of the ball than his | :31:10. | :31:11. | |
opposite number. Fernandinho with another foul on | :31:12. | :31:42. | |
James Rodriguez, who is showing a little bit of unhappiness here. They | :31:43. | :31:47. | |
are all around the referee. The free kick has been taken, and the referee | :31:48. | :31:55. | |
is saying play an! Brazil can break. Colombia absolutely incensed. Ibarbo | :31:56. | :32:04. | |
made the block. That was bizarre. Maicon, Paulinho. Fred was | :32:05. | :32:14. | |
completely unmarked to his left, and he couldn't find him. That was all | :32:15. | :32:21. | |
of their own making, because they all rush around the referee, and | :32:22. | :32:25. | |
then they are out of position, but he just waved, play on. It is no | :32:26. | :32:33. | |
exaggeration, we have played 25 minutes, it could be 3-1 already. | :32:34. | :32:45. | |
David Luiz has got to be careful, he comes out the, and they get behind | :32:46. | :32:47. | |
him. Guarin, to Longford Gutierrez. It will be a test for these two | :32:48. | :33:13. | |
Brazilian central defenders. He lost in the World Cup in 2006 when the | :33:14. | :33:21. | |
Argentinian team lost a penalty shoot-out to Germany in Berlin. He | :33:22. | :33:24. | |
is an Argentine. Brilliant, move the ball quickly. I | :33:25. | :33:43. | |
think that is the way to win this World Cup. You need the brilliance | :33:44. | :33:49. | |
as well, running at people, but it is about moving the ball quickly. I | :33:50. | :33:56. | |
think Scolari will be pleased at how Paulinho has done in this first | :33:57. | :33:58. | |
half. That is a clever ball. It is a goal | :33:59. | :34:19. | |
kick. It hit Fred. It did hit Fred, I thought it hit Yepes. Marcelo | :34:20. | :34:25. | |
couldn't guide it in. Neymar, a lovely dummy, but they | :34:26. | :34:57. | |
read it. Carlos Sanchez bumping into him. It doesn't quite reach Fred. | :34:58. | :35:06. | |
Beautifully back into Hulk. Good save by Ospina. And the whistle has | :35:07. | :35:14. | |
gone. Ospina saving anyway from Oscar. Brazil could have had this | :35:15. | :35:22. | |
game out of sight. Colombia are really rocking here. That is an | :35:23. | :35:31. | |
excellent save. Down on his left hand side, brilliant save. Just look | :35:32. | :35:40. | |
at this here. Onto this left foot. Download. Great save. Hulk still | :35:41. | :35:51. | |
hasn't scored yet in this World Cup. Did he trip Cuadrado to prevent the | :35:52. | :35:56. | |
Colombian getting away from him? He did. That is a hell of a battle | :35:57. | :36:02. | |
between those two. Marcelo will know he has been in a game tonight. | :36:03. | :36:14. | |
Yepes comes forward, Ibarbo is there. | :36:15. | :36:30. | |
James Rodriguez with the delivery, headed away by Cuadrado. Doing a lot | :36:31. | :36:41. | |
of defensive work as well, Oscar, tonight. He seems to be more central | :36:42. | :36:47. | |
rather than stuck out on the wing, and I think he is better for it. | :36:48. | :36:58. | |
Neymar almost got around the two of them. He just ran out of pitch. He | :36:59. | :38:00. | |
knows he has to get out to him. He is the danger man, Cuadrado. Thiago | :38:01. | :38:08. | |
Silva comes out and blocks. Davide Luiz beautifully ahead of Guiterrez. | :38:09. | :38:19. | |
Still David Luiz. And in the end, Zapata got the better of him, but | :38:20. | :38:25. | |
only just. Oscar wins it back. Paulinho. A good tackle by Yepes. | :38:26. | :38:36. | |
Colombia are keeping Brazil out, but only just. Given away again. Armero | :38:37. | :38:44. | |
to Maicon. It is Total Football at times. They just want to go in and | :38:45. | :38:47. | |
spar with people. The referee as we watch this replay | :38:48. | :39:08. | |
is having a word with David Luiz, probably telling him to curb his | :39:09. | :39:14. | |
enthusiasm. Will they leave the back door open because they want to just | :39:15. | :39:24. | |
keep going for it? This being a fantastic occasion was never, ever | :39:25. | :39:27. | |
in doubt, but it is also shaping up to be a fantastic game. | :39:28. | :39:33. | |
Questionmarks about their mentality, but they are up for it and focused | :39:34. | :39:48. | |
tonight. Hulk and Fred are forward. Left sitting over the top of | :39:49. | :39:54. | |
Paulinho. A difficult skill. He is on the run, trying to play 1-2. When | :39:55. | :40:04. | |
we have seen him all season in the Premier League, we know he is a | :40:05. | :40:10. | |
better player than Paulinho, but now Scolari knows it. Not quite | :40:11. | :40:19. | |
anonymous, but he has had precious little opportunity. This is a | :40:20. | :40:25. | |
problem, Zapata having to keep coming back and taking these. He | :40:26. | :40:34. | |
needs to come back hard and fast, or he is playing everyone onside. | :40:35. | :40:46. | |
Thiago Silva to David Luiz to Marcelo. | :40:47. | :41:06. | |
Much better than the game against Chile. I think they have than | :41:07. | :41:16. | |
working on this. Just keep pushing it around. Colombia are desperate, | :41:17. | :41:20. | |
they can't get the ball back. Neymar is in all kinds of space | :41:21. | :41:37. | |
there. Maicon's first touch was a little heavy and took him away to | :41:38. | :41:42. | |
the byline, but he has got a corner out of it. He is lucky, because he | :41:43. | :41:49. | |
looked very rusty there. Beautiful football from Brazil, look at this | :41:50. | :41:54. | |
for splitting pass. He is just not quite quick enough. Just about a | :41:55. | :42:03. | |
corner. Neymar takes, flicked on at the near post by Fernandinho. Goal | :42:04. | :42:11. | |
kick. Getting that kick at the near post, because Colombia are not | :42:12. | :42:15. | |
putting two players there. It is a danger area. They have already | :42:16. | :42:21. | |
scored one from a flick. Set pieces are important. | :42:22. | :42:38. | |
Brazil, ranked third in the world at the start of this tournament, it is | :42:39. | :42:44. | |
amazing when you think back to the Confederations Cup last year, they | :42:45. | :42:47. | |
were ranked 22nd in the world at the start of that tournament. They | :42:48. | :42:53. | |
looked like a good shout favourites at the moment for this. | :42:54. | :43:03. | |
And it is a free kick right on the edge of the Brazilian penalty area. | :43:04. | :43:13. | |
It is because they get down this right-hand side, Maicon is just not | :43:14. | :43:18. | |
quick enough. When it comes in, it is a desperate lunge to win. He is | :43:19. | :43:24. | |
the one clearing up in midfield. He does the job of two men. He is | :43:25. | :43:28. | |
adjudged to have put his foot too high. The contact wasn't actually | :43:29. | :43:39. | |
from Fernandinho Yeo. But he didn't make contact with the Colombian, the | :43:40. | :43:42. | |
Colombian is making contact with him. He came in late, the referee | :43:43. | :43:47. | |
thought it was dangerous play. Now, what chance for Colombia here. It is | :43:48. | :44:18. | |
in his range. Is it too close? Julio Cesar will be the hero again, or | :44:19. | :44:28. | |
will it be Rodriguez? Such is the quality of these guys taking free | :44:29. | :44:35. | |
kicks that you cannot give one away. A huddle of three around this, | :44:36. | :44:44. | |
Rodriguez, Cuadrado and Fredy Guarin. You have got a shout, | :44:45. | :44:51. | |
because the noise inside this stadium is immense. That doesn't | :44:52. | :44:59. | |
look like it is doing to be Cuadrado. It is James Rodriguez. And | :45:00. | :45:04. | |
Neymar made the block. I would like to see that again to see when he | :45:05. | :45:09. | |
broke from the wall. It looks like he has gone early. And the referee | :45:10. | :45:14. | |
says that Colombia will have another free kick. I think they are saying | :45:15. | :45:20. | |
that he must have broken from the wall. You cannot hear the whistle in | :45:21. | :45:31. | |
here, it is so loud. Brazil have got some defending to do. Curled in by | :45:32. | :45:46. | |
James Rodriguez. Julio Cesar is there. Paulinho is chased by Ibarbo. | :45:47. | :45:55. | |
Challenged by Zapata. But he continues, before being | :45:56. | :46:01. | |
dispossessed. And it is a free kick to Brazil. Zapata has just pulled | :46:02. | :46:07. | |
him back by leaning on his shoulder. Paulinho, trying to get through. You | :46:08. | :46:17. | |
do not like to see that, him trying to get his opponent booked. David | :46:18. | :46:25. | |
Luiz has taken a few liberties in possession. Fernandinho. Space for | :46:26. | :46:42. | |
Fred. Neymar. Hulk, now. Marcelo on an overlap. Four in the middle, with | :46:43. | :46:53. | |
Marcelo overlapping. Far too much power put into that shot. He does | :46:54. | :46:58. | |
the hard bit, shifting the defender, then he balloons it. Fred was in | :46:59. | :47:12. | |
acres of space. Cut out by Thiago Silva. David Luiz finds Neymar. | :47:13. | :47:22. | |
Lovely control. Neymar, running past Zapata, Sanchez covering, goalkick. | :47:23. | :47:30. | |
Sanchez sits in midfield and drops back beautifully, as well. That is a | :47:31. | :47:37. | |
lovely touch. So silky. He gets it out of his feet. Too much weight on | :47:38. | :47:49. | |
it. Little over five minutes of a quite excellent first half still to | :47:50. | :48:07. | |
play. SP now, taking that -- David Ospina taking the goalkick, they | :48:08. | :48:13. | |
seem to have abandoned the plan of Zapata taking them. That is strange. | :48:14. | :48:21. | |
Is the goalkeeper fit or not? Twice, three times. He was Marcelo. | :48:22. | :48:31. | |
Sanchez. It breaks to safety with Ospina. | :48:32. | :48:40. | |
The clearance from Ospina. Fred manages to get something on it. | :48:41. | :48:50. | |
Rodriguez trying to find Ibarbo. James Rodriguez. It comes to Armero, | :48:51. | :49:01. | |
three Colombians have gone down inside the penalty area. I think | :49:02. | :49:04. | |
they hate each other, Ibarbo and James Rodriguez. -- hit each other. | :49:05. | :49:25. | |
James Rodriguez and Ibarbo knocked each other over. Yes, wholehearted | :49:26. | :49:33. | |
challenges. Can they get something before half-time? The referee's | :49:34. | :49:57. | |
whistle shrilly says free kick. There has been the odd little flash | :49:58. | :50:01. | |
from Colombia in this first half. But they have certainly been second | :50:02. | :50:07. | |
best. It has been a performance of great pace and energy from Brazil. | :50:08. | :50:17. | |
Just don't write them off just yet. That was a slightly heavy first | :50:18. | :50:20. | |
touch for once from Neymar. He has got a free kick. They are not happy | :50:21. | :50:36. | |
with that, Colombia. It is in a fantastic area for him as well. He | :50:37. | :50:40. | |
gets to his feet and he sees where it is. Good decision by the referee. | :50:41. | :50:47. | |
This spells trouble and Jose Pekerman knows it. Two minutes of | :50:48. | :50:55. | |
the first have to go, Colombia are 1-0 down, they do not need to go in | :50:56. | :51:07. | |
two goals down. There is a huge debate going on between Marcelo and | :51:08. | :51:15. | |
Hulk. Neymar looks favourite at the moment. Hulk has somewhat | :51:16. | :51:23. | |
reluctantly walk away from it. He is desperate for a goal, Hulk. But he | :51:24. | :51:32. | |
is not having this one. It is Neymar, carefully. Too high. It is | :51:33. | :51:46. | |
not coming off today from these free kicks. Just can't quite get it up | :51:47. | :51:52. | |
and down on time. He is normally excellent at Bowes. -- at those. The | :51:53. | :52:03. | |
Colombian goalkeeper had some kind of problem where he was not taking | :52:04. | :52:08. | |
the goal kicks early on, but he is taking them now. I wonder if it is a | :52:09. | :52:13. | |
right footed keeper taking them with his left. Another Brazilian free | :52:14. | :52:22. | |
kick. There has not been any card yet in the game but one or two of | :52:23. | :52:27. | |
them are treading a fine line. That is a yellow card, isn't it? It was | :52:28. | :52:33. | |
cynical from is media. We have not seen much of him in this match. | :52:34. | :52:38. | |
Normally, he is flying forward. He has been pinned back the whole time | :52:39. | :52:42. | |
-- Zune eager. Thiago Silva. Just one added minute | :52:43. | :53:06. | |
in this first half. Rodriguez knocked over by Fernandinho, and not | :53:07. | :53:17. | |
for the first time. Rodriguez goes down as if someone has shot him, | :53:18. | :53:22. | |
then he jumps up. I do not like to see that. He is waiting for the | :53:23. | :53:29. | |
reaction. He goes down. Fernandinho, forward. Fred, lovely header. And | :53:30. | :53:37. | |
look at the pace of Armero, he made up about four yards on Paulinho. | :53:38. | :53:48. | |
James Rodriguez has lost it. He hits the ground every time. I do not like | :53:49. | :54:00. | |
that about him. Marcelo, Hulk again. Looking for Marcelo again. | :54:01. | :54:05. | |
Comfortably cut out, and Zune eager is fouled. And the referee says that | :54:06. | :54:09. | |
will do, it is the end of the first half, probably Brazil's best of the | :54:10. | :54:15. | |
World Cup, Thiago Silva with the goal in the seventh minute, they | :54:16. | :54:20. | |
might have had more, with David Ospina making three or four very | :54:21. | :54:24. | |
good saves, and James Rodriguez has not really got into it yet. | :54:25. | :54:28. | |
Half-time, result one, Colombia zero. -- Brazil one. | :54:29. | :54:40. | |
At half-time, Colombia have made a substitution. Victor Ibarbo has been | :54:41. | :54:52. | |
replaced by Adrian Ramos. He started the last group game against Japan | :54:53. | :55:08. | |
and came on against Uruguay. There he is, Adrian Ramos for Victor | :55:09. | :55:17. | |
Ibarbo. He is a forward player who will play for Borussia Dortmund in | :55:18. | :55:23. | |
the Bundesliga next season. They have gone back to 4-4- two with | :55:24. | :55:28. | |
James Rodriguez moving to the left of midfield. The referee has blown | :55:29. | :55:32. | |
his whistle and the second half gets underway. 4-4-2. It'll be | :55:33. | :55:38. | |
interesting to see how they accommodate this system. Rodriguez | :55:39. | :55:45. | |
goes on the wing but I think he will come in more centrally when they | :55:46. | :55:53. | |
have possession. They have got to find a way back into this game, | :55:54. | :55:58. | |
Colombia. They have only beaten Brazil twice in 25 attempts. The | :55:59. | :56:02. | |
last four meetings have all been drawn. Including one played in New | :56:03. | :56:10. | |
Jersey. A couple of years ago, when Neymar missed a penalty. Put it | :56:11. | :56:18. | |
miles over the crossbar, one of the worst penalties you will ever see. | :56:19. | :56:23. | |
Gutierrez was in an offside position. No foul. But like to see | :56:24. | :56:35. | |
that again. -- I would like to see that again. Maicon has got forward | :56:36. | :56:45. | |
on the right-hand side. James Rodriguez was fouled by Neymar. | :56:46. | :56:58. | |
Ramos, the substitute, with Gutierrez in the middle. Good pace, | :56:59. | :57:06. | |
Fernandinho getting back. That is a foul, really. I think Neymar was | :57:07. | :57:16. | |
judged to have hit that with his hand. Does Cuadrado take a dive? | :57:17. | :57:24. | |
Yes. Look at him trying to get hold of David Luiz's lake. It is like fly | :57:25. | :57:29. | |
fishing, isn't it? No booking, though. James Rodriguez. That is a | :57:30. | :57:36. | |
foul. Yet there is for Colombia. -- Mario | :57:37. | :57:46. | |
Yepes. James Rodriguez coming in from the | :57:47. | :57:59. | |
left hand side. Smashed away by David Luiz. | :58:00. | :58:19. | |
got. I think they just want to win. A slightly heavy touch there, | :58:20. | :58:26. | |
allowed Thiago Silva to come in. The decision is it should be a Brazilian | :58:27. | :58:28. | |
throw-in. You heard the shout is Maicon | :58:29. | :58:54. | |
arrived. The free kick is given. This is a familiar theme, Rodriguez | :58:55. | :58:59. | |
hitting the deck. Hardly any contact there, look at him. You see players | :59:00. | :59:08. | |
doing this, a lot of talk about Arjen Robben doing it, was it a | :59:09. | :59:13. | |
dive, wasn't it? A free kick is given. That has | :59:14. | :59:37. | |
surprised one or two. Zuniga here, Hulk with the challenge. I think | :59:38. | :59:43. | |
there was a bit of contact, was there? Marginally. I think it is the | :59:44. | :59:49. | |
linesman who has given it on this nearside. | :59:50. | :59:57. | |
Cuadrado with this free kick for Colombia. | :59:58. | :00:10. | |
Cuadrado's delivery. It was just too-James Rodriguez. | :00:11. | :00:22. | |
A little deflection, but it just didn't inflect enough for Cuadrado. | :00:23. | :00:34. | |
Rodriguez looks dangerous in that area, that little pocket just in | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
front of the back four. Armero running in this second half. | :00:37. | :01:00. | |
He is more than happy to do that. Fernandinho running at Guarin, | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
running around him. Launched himself into the challenge, and it is going | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
to be a Brazilian free kick in a dangerous area. It is the push in | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
the back as well, knocks him off Alan is. Just overdoing it, Guarin. | :01:17. | :01:28. | |
Good refereeing, because by the time he went down, he was almost on the | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
edge of the penalty area, but the referee has taken it back to where | :01:34. | :01:34. | |
it was actually committed. Two lines here. The referee has | :01:35. | :02:09. | |
drawn two defensive lines on the pitch. It is a corner. | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
I think it has been overruled. I thought that was a corner. It is a | :02:18. | :02:27. | |
good all whipped in. It should have been a corner. I thought he had | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
given a corner. Hulk, who had a few chances in the | :02:32. | :02:59. | |
first half thwarted by Ospina. Marcelo goes around Sanchez, | :03:00. | :03:25. | |
deflection on the cross. Well taken by Ospina. | :03:26. | :03:39. | |
Marcelo creating the movements down the wing. The players have | :03:40. | :03:48. | |
wholeheartedly gone after that. Fred's head made contact with the | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
backside of Yepes. Total accident. Zuniga forward. File by Marcelo. We | :03:56. | :04:22. | |
haven't seen much of Cuadrado in this second half. If he can turn | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
around and run, he can cause trouble. The redshirt fans are | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
hugely outnumbered. The ball was rolling, apparently, | :04:35. | :04:58. | |
when the free kick was taken. Pekerman, the coach of Colombia, | :04:59. | :05:18. | |
bringing on Ramos. That little shove there. I think he just missed timed | :05:19. | :05:29. | |
it, because it is him shoving. Talking about substitutions, you | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
can't over emphasise how warm it is here tonight. This is the first | :05:35. | :05:43. | |
stadium where they had a drinks break in the previous match. I know | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
it is not the midday sun here any more, but it is still warm. | :05:50. | :06:05. | |
Zuniga with the throw. It will be another Colombian throw. Plenty of | :06:06. | :06:16. | |
time, Colombia don't need to rush. There is 25 minutes of this one left | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
at least. The nerves are building. It has been a BT start -- bitty | :06:19. | :06:43. | |
start to the second half. Neither side can say they are in the | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
ascendancy. Sanchez slightly missed timed that header. It rebound to | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
Neymar. Gutierrez trying to use his body to | :06:55. | :07:16. | |
leave it around David Luiz. It didn't happen. Maicon here. | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
No touch from Fred. He miss read it. Maicon can't get on the end of it. | :07:24. | :07:32. | |
Rodriguez into Guarin. A mighty high smash into the air | :07:33. | :07:55. | |
from Hulk. And they get a free kick. The man down here is the goal-scorer | :07:56. | :08:05. | |
and captain, Thiago Silva. Silva has gone down in the challenge. I think | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
he did that himself in the challenge. | :08:12. | :08:17. | |
The knees come together. Just on the ankle. Thiago Silva, that seventh | :08:18. | :08:32. | |
minute goal is the difference between the teams at the moment. | :08:33. | :08:39. | |
They are getting panicky here, Brazil, they keep lashing it into | :08:40. | :08:40. | |
touch. Pablo Armero does well to reach | :08:41. | :08:54. | |
that. But it goes over the top of the bar. Rodriguez is saying, calm | :08:55. | :09:04. | |
down. Down the left-hand side, he just manages to scoop it out. I | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
think Rodriguez wants it back. Not the best of finishes. As the vision, | :09:10. | :09:17. | |
sees the pass, but his colleague hasn't got the same technique. | :09:18. | :09:33. | |
Sanchez always covering for Colombia. David Luiz with another | :09:34. | :09:42. | |
smash downfield. Brazil now giving the ball away far too much. Ospina | :09:43. | :09:52. | |
for Colombia finding Armero. You just feel that the pendulum of this | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
game is starting to swing away from Brazil a little. | :09:57. | :10:09. | |
That is four times in this second half that a Brazilian defender has | :10:10. | :10:21. | |
just hit it as hard as they can. They are playing as if it is the | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
last five minutes. They need to calm down. It is all about keeping your | :10:25. | :10:32. | |
head when all around are losing theirs. Absolutely. I am not seeing | :10:33. | :10:43. | |
too many leaders out there. David Luiz with the ball away downfield. A | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
cheap free kick. Can Colombia get back into this | :10:46. | :11:17. | |
quarterfinal? They have stopped playing, Brazil. | :11:18. | :11:28. | |
I can't help feeling that if Colombia get a goal, Brazil are in | :11:29. | :11:36. | |
trouble. They certainly are. This is much -- as much about the pressure, | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
the emotional side of the game, the tension. | :11:43. | :11:50. | |
Again, he goes down very easily. It is a personal battle between him and | :11:51. | :12:00. | |
the referee, isn't it? Yes, he catches him. That is Marcelo in the | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
book. Every yellow shirt except Neymar | :12:06. | :12:12. | |
back. Too many cooks? In goes the free kick, it could go | :12:13. | :12:29. | |
anywhere. A good block by Fernandinho. Hulk | :12:30. | :12:45. | |
has found Oscar. Neymar will get onto this despite Sanchez. Blocked | :12:46. | :12:53. | |
off by Cuadrado, free kick to Brazil. I don't think the Spanish | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
referee has brought the card, has he? He just ran straight into him, | :13:01. | :13:10. | |
he can't have any complaints. Just takes him out. It's just relieves | :13:11. | :13:20. | |
the tension, for Brazil. And they are tense. Still only 18 minutes of | :13:21. | :13:31. | |
the second half laid. It has felt like about a narrow half with | :13:32. | :13:40. | |
Brazil's nerves. -- an hour and a half. Still roundabout half an hour | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
of playing time to go. A goal settles the nerves. Neymar's | :13:46. | :13:59. | |
delivery comfortable for Ospina. Ospina has it taken away from him. | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
That is not going to count. And he has brought his cards with him. | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
Thiago Silva has one, and he will now not play in the semifinal of the | :14:11. | :14:27. | |
World Cup if Ozil are in it. He is just running back. He gets in his | :14:28. | :14:41. | |
way. He should know better, really. Dante could come in, Henrique, the | :14:42. | :14:52. | |
Napoli defender. Diego Silva will be sitting and watching the semifinal | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
if Brazil go through. And that is the coach's reaction. This is what I | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
like about him. He is their leader. Shouting instructions. They need | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
that on the pitch. Ospina, away downfield. That is a lovely ball in | :15:12. | :15:21. | |
towards Neymar. Excellent tackle on Neymar. He is ten yards deeper than | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
everybody else and makes a great tackle. That was well caught out. | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
Fernandinho, away. Zune eager goes over. Colombia free kick. -- Zuniga. | :15:34. | :15:49. | |
Every minute that goes by, the tension is ratcheting up another | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
notch, and it is the Brazilians that are feeling it. | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
James Rodriguez. Into the danger area. And the flag is up, yet | :16:02. | :16:12. | |
there's things he has scored but he hasn't. -- Mario Yepes. The flag was | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
up before the ball was in the net. Mario Yepes thinks he has done it | :16:18. | :16:35. | |
for his team. Fantastic all in from Rodriguez. It looks like he was just | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
offside. The goalkeeper comes and then goes back. It breaks to him. He | :16:43. | :16:52. | |
must have been deemed to be offside. It is a matter of an inch or two, | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
but I think he was just offside as that was taken. That is a let off | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
for Brazil. You cannot help feeling that the writing is on the wall. | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
They are getting less composed, Brazil, as the game goes on. Free | :17:11. | :17:20. | |
kick. He slid in a two feet from a distance. And that is Rodriguez | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
going into the book. He's pointing out how many times he has been | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
fouled. He makes one challenge and he is in the book. I think the | :17:29. | :17:36. | |
referee was just fed up with him in the end. He tried to pull out of it. | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
But he is coming in with his studs raised height. He is not in control. | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
Sitting here watching it, and the players are out there hoping that | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
someone is going to win this game for them, the Brazilians. You have | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
got to do your job, be professional and see it through. You would hope | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
that the overwhelming desire of the people for their players to win this | :18:07. | :18:15. | |
does not suffocate the players. David Luiz. | :18:16. | :18:24. | |
David Luiz hits it, it is dipping, it is in, it is brilliant! What a | :18:25. | :18:36. | |
goal from David Luiz. Absolute perfection. David Luiz hammers home | :18:37. | :18:48. | |
a sensational free kick. And Brazil are within touching distance of the | :18:49. | :18:56. | |
last four. Unbelievable goal. It has lifted the lid off of this stadium | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
and of the pressure that has been building on this team. , Fiala,, if | :19:03. | :19:15. | |
the man, David Luiz has come into this tournament -- cometh the hour, | :19:16. | :19:30. | |
cometh the man. The side foot from there, he has got no right to score. | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
Look at it dipping. He makes its were van Gogh up and down quickly, | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
and the goalkeeper cannot pick up the flight of it quickly enough. | :19:41. | :19:47. | |
Brazilians and free case. I have seen him missing loads of those. He | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
knows that he will knock one of them in some, somewhere. Colombia are | :19:52. | :20:00. | |
making a second substitution. Carlos Bacca is coming on, and Gutierrez is | :20:01. | :20:06. | |
coming off. It is a straight swap, striker for striker. | :20:07. | :20:28. | |
2-0, Brazil. There he is again. He is on fire. Just when you thought | :20:29. | :20:41. | |
that victory might be slipping through their fingers, David Luiz. | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
Hulk gives it away. James Rodriguez again. Looking for Ram oss, who | :20:48. | :20:55. | |
almost got there. Julio Cesar looking to release Neymar. Neymar | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
has lost it. Chasing James Rodriguez. It balloons away to | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
Armero. The substitute, Carlos Bacca. | :21:06. | :21:24. | |
Armero, inside. Rodriguez with a clever little ball. Zune eager. -- | :21:25. | :21:38. | |
Zuniga. Marcelo has not got anywhere to go with it and he has lashed the | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
ball downfield. Almost making a statement, saying that I am not | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
going to play with that, I am just going to put that into the stand. | :21:48. | :21:55. | |
Rodriguez, some of his play is brilliant. That will go down with | :21:56. | :22:05. | |
the free kick by Roberto Carlos in France in 1987 in Le Tournoi. This | :22:06. | :22:20. | |
is pretty special. In terms of the pressure, to relieve the pressure. | :22:21. | :22:27. | |
They are still celebrating now. Problems, problems, for Colombia. | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
The noise is extraordinary in this stadium. Maicon, for Brazil. 18 | :22:33. | :22:43. | |
minutes to play. O, chased by Armero. Brazil get the throw-in. -- | :22:44. | :22:51. | |
Oscar. -- | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
Oscar. Great effort, demonstrating the | :22:55. | :23:17. | |
quality of his left foot as well. He just cannot bend that in. In the | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
last couple of World Cups, five goals has been enough to win the | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
Golden Boot. James Rodriguez is one short of that. He sends that out too | :23:29. | :23:42. | |
far. Sanchez is happy to hear the whistle blowing and giving Colombia | :23:43. | :23:50. | |
free kick. Mario Yepes to take it. Colombia thought they had equalised. | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
A few moments later, they fall further behind. And somebody | :23:55. | :24:02. | |
somewhere will count that as a shot in the statistics. It is just | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
another clearance. They have got to keep their heads. They have got more | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
quality, the Brazilians. That is what we associate them with. In this | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
World Cup, Brazil's team might be beatable but the nation is not. When | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
they play, it is the coming together of the players with the people. That | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
is quite a responsibility for these players. Managing the expectations. | :24:33. | :24:45. | |
Marcelo with this flooring. Straight to Zuniga, and straight back to him. | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
-- with this throw-in. It is a case of anywhere will do, at times. | :24:52. | :24:58. | |
Colombia will be disappointed if they do not get one goal in this. | :24:59. | :25:06. | |
That goes straight through to Julio Cesar. We have seen Brazilian teams | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
keeping the ball for fun, but this Brazilian team seems almost | :25:14. | :25:21. | |
frightened of the ball, at times. 15 minutes to go, that is all. Armero. | :25:22. | :25:36. | |
Is that a foul? It is. By Carlos Bacca. | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
He just shoves him off the ball. He was trying to win it. This is this | :25:40. | :25:48. | |
free kick again. The pace that he can generate with the side of his | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
foot, that is truly amazing. Beautiful. It has gone exactly where | :25:53. | :26:01. | |
he wants to put it as well. And what it means to him. It is like | :26:02. | :26:16. | |
Tardelli, in 1982. He will remember this night for a few years. But, if | :26:17. | :26:25. | |
Colombia get one goal, Brazil get nervous. He could not find Neymar. | :26:26. | :26:42. | |
Zapata, to Zuniga. This might come to Neymar. A brilliant challenge by | :26:43. | :26:50. | |
Mario Yepes. Outstanding. 38 years old. Who says that you cannot still | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
play at that age? We are writing off Ashley Cole at 32. It was a | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
magnificent challenge by Mario Yepes. Maicon. Armero, putting | :27:02. | :27:17. | |
Maicon under pressure. And he reaps reward because he has given it away. | :27:18. | :27:28. | |
James Rodriguez. Will he get there? He is tripped by Julio Cesar. It is | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
a penalty kick. And which card is Julio Cesar going to get? It is a | :27:35. | :27:41. | |
yellow card. He is lucky. Penalty all day long. Brilliant approach | :27:42. | :27:47. | |
work on the edge of the penalty area. James Rodriguez again with a | :27:48. | :27:53. | |
great reverse pass. He has got eyes in the back of his head. He tries to | :27:54. | :27:57. | |
lift it over the goalkeeper, and that is a clear penalty. The only | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
thing saving him is that even Louise has got back in behind him. The | :28:03. | :28:08. | |
Colombians are protesting to the referee that Julio Cesar should not | :28:09. | :28:16. | |
on the pitch. I am not sure that he's going to stay on anyway. He has | :28:17. | :28:25. | |
taken one hell of a clout, there. He's going to stay on for this | :28:26. | :28:29. | |
penalty. And his heroics, you could argue, have got Brazil into this | :28:30. | :28:35. | |
quarterfinal, in the penalty shoot out against Chile. He saved two and | :28:36. | :28:45. | |
one of them hit the post. He might have taken some treatment there to | :28:46. | :28:55. | |
prolong this even longer. James Rodriguez is going to take his | :28:56. | :29:00. | |
penalty kick. There will be plenty of added time at the end of this | :29:01. | :29:10. | |
one. Rodriguez gets to take it. He is the one whose reverse pass, such | :29:11. | :29:16. | |
a quality player. Hulk is telling him where he is gay a budget. -- | :29:17. | :29:21. | |
where he is going to put it. 2-1! And the rest of this is a | :29:22. | :29:56. | |
Brazilian ordeal. Brilliant from Rodriguez. Quality penalty. Julio | :29:57. | :30:09. | |
Cesar stands up for an age. He waits for him to go and puts it in the | :30:10. | :30:16. | |
opposite corner. Colombia are making a substitution. Cuadrado is going | :30:17. | :30:21. | |
off and Quintero is coming on. It is their last change. Ten minutes | :30:22. | :30:39. | |
to go, 2-1. Another test of the hosts' mental strength. Here is | :30:40. | :30:48. | |
Zuniga for Colombia. That challenge by Oscar hasn't really done the job. | :30:49. | :30:54. | |
Getting it wide to Armero. Off Maicon, and they have a corner kick. | :30:55. | :31:05. | |
James in a hurry. It is a great ball in. The flag is up, it wouldn't have | :31:06. | :31:16. | |
counted. They are asleep at the back, Brazil. How marginal is that? | :31:17. | :31:34. | |
If at all. If that had gone in, they would have been some controversy. | :31:35. | :31:39. | |
They are lucky really to still have their full 11 players on the pitch. | :31:40. | :31:47. | |
You might not see a more nervous ten minutes in this entire World Cup | :31:48. | :31:48. | |
than what is here. . Ramos chasing Thiago Silva across. | :31:49. | :32:11. | |
And Brazil are making a change. Ramires is coming on, and Hulk is | :32:12. | :32:21. | |
going off. He is in a hurry, he knows the momentum is with his team. | :32:22. | :32:27. | |
Rodriguez has left this corner kick. Hulk makes way, and Ramires | :32:28. | :32:40. | |
comes on. James Rodriguez has made his way inside the penalty area. | :32:41. | :32:45. | |
Bacca as Ramos are there. Quintero's corner, near post, put | :32:46. | :33:05. | |
behind for another. This is an important header as Fred has made in | :33:06. | :33:15. | |
this tournament. Looking for that near post flick. It has gone out of | :33:16. | :33:19. | |
play for a Colombian throw-in. The referee unhappy. I think the | :33:20. | :33:30. | |
other ball hadn't left the pitch yet. So is an ego will take it | :33:31. | :33:45. | |
again. -- Zuniga. A foul on Fernandinho by Cristian Zapata. This | :33:46. | :33:54. | |
is the work that Fernandinho has been doing for his team. He has been | :33:55. | :34:02. | |
immense. What a climax to this game in Fortaleza. | :34:03. | :34:08. | |
They believe again, Colombia. I think it is one of those, strap | :34:09. | :34:17. | |
yourselves in. The pressure is building again. Look at the room | :34:18. | :34:29. | |
here for Adrian Ramos. He plays it Bacca. Armero is offside. Just too | :34:30. | :34:41. | |
eager. Fantastic play, though. He is covering some distance on that | :34:42. | :34:46. | |
left-hand side. Just got to be more patient. The official has done | :34:47. | :34:52. | |
brilliantly well to pick that up. There is no need for him to be | :34:53. | :34:54. | |
offside. He is just overeager. 2-1, Brazil lead. Hernanes is going | :34:55. | :35:01. | |
to come on. Here is Zuniga. Trying to run away | :35:02. | :35:34. | |
from Oscar, he did well. And it is going to be a Colombian corner, | :35:35. | :35:37. | |
despite what Oscar is trying to claim. The referee just about got | :35:38. | :35:41. | |
that right. Paulinho is coming off and Hernanes | :35:42. | :35:47. | |
is coming on. His first appearance since he came | :35:48. | :36:09. | |
on against Croatia in the World Cup's opening game. Five minutes to | :36:10. | :36:16. | |
go. Quintero with the Colombian corner kick aiming for the near | :36:17. | :36:22. | |
post. Neymar is trying to draw a foul. Oscar. The red shirts are | :36:23. | :36:34. | |
outnumbering the yellow. Oscar hasn't done it much at the end. | :36:35. | :36:42. | |
Neymar has stayed down. It could be serious. They are checking on him. | :36:43. | :36:52. | |
Marcelo and James Rodriguez are checking on Brazil's Number ten. I | :36:53. | :36:57. | |
think it is his back he is complaining about. Yes, he got a | :36:58. | :37:11. | |
knee in the back from Zuniga. He felt that one. | :37:12. | :37:20. | |
Who knows how much added time there is going to be at the end of this | :37:21. | :37:28. | |
one. I think they are indicating that Neymar is not going to be able | :37:29. | :37:44. | |
to continue. Knee right in the back. It is a shame to see a player of | :37:45. | :37:48. | |
that quality leave the pitch in that manner. Certainly in considerable | :37:49. | :37:58. | |
pain. If they make the semifinal, they will already be without their | :37:59. | :38:04. | |
captain, Thiago Silva. Instructions are given to Henrique, the Napoli | :38:05. | :38:12. | |
defender, who is going to replace Neymar. | :38:13. | :38:21. | |
Well, we are into the 88th minute, but I don't think that represents | :38:22. | :38:36. | |
how much time that there is to go. That is a picture no Brazilian wants | :38:37. | :38:44. | |
to see. It is a shame. Brazil have a free kick. | :38:45. | :39:08. | |
Carlos Bacca wriggles inside. He might unleash something here. Good | :39:09. | :39:14. | |
block. Armero. Sanchez to Guarin. A chance was an ego. -- to Zuniga. | :39:15. | :39:42. | |
The ball has gone out of play on this nearside. Marcelo has been left | :39:43. | :39:47. | |
in a heap. Everyone is trying to referee the game. Rodriguez is an | :39:48. | :39:58. | |
angry man. If he gets the ball in a favourable position between now and | :39:59. | :40:01. | |
the end of the game, he is going to do something special. I can feel it | :40:02. | :40:04. | |
with him. 20 seconds of normal time to go. I | :40:05. | :40:20. | |
can see the fourth official from here, and I think he has got a five | :40:21. | :40:28. | |
on his board. Oscar out of play. Five it is. | :40:29. | :40:37. | |
Scolari screaming at his midfield to get back in. Fernandinho finds Fred. | :40:38. | :40:46. | |
Armero. James Rodriguez wants the ball. He | :40:47. | :41:02. | |
finds Carlos Bacca. The ricochet almost fell to Ramos. Not out of | :41:03. | :41:10. | |
play. Carlos Sanchez is off after it. James Rodriguez needs to pick | :41:11. | :41:19. | |
himself up. The ball is in play. He either hits the deck or pulls off a | :41:20. | :41:29. | |
great pass. Four onto four here. Oscar for Brazil. Hernanes. He has | :41:30. | :41:38. | |
stayed on his feet. A lovely little chip ball, lovely idea, but too much | :41:39. | :41:45. | |
on it Ramires. He would have been better placed keeping position for | :41:46. | :41:46. | |
his team. Quintero, Armero. James Rodriguez | :41:47. | :42:06. | |
arriving inside the penalty area. Cleared by Thiago Silva. | :42:07. | :42:14. | |
Rodriguez with the header on. Ramos trying to find Yepes. It is a corner | :42:15. | :42:23. | |
kick to Colombia, and it is agony from Brazil. They are going for it. | :42:24. | :42:33. | |
If this delivery is right, it could be chaos. It is wide from Ramos. | :42:34. | :42:43. | |
Goal kick. A teasing ball in, just can't steer it in the direction of | :42:44. | :42:45. | |
the goal. Julio Cesar wants to be careful | :42:46. | :42:56. | |
here, because if he gets a yellow card for time wasting, he is off. | :42:57. | :43:00. | |
That would be controversial. Yepes stays forward. Julio Cesar | :43:01. | :43:13. | |
with a big smash away downfield. Sanchez got his head on it and it | :43:14. | :43:17. | |
has gone out of play for a Brazilian throw-in. Maicon ambles forward. The | :43:18. | :43:29. | |
ball boy somewhat reluctantly throws it to him. Three minutes of five | :43:30. | :43:37. | |
have been played. Colombia free kick. A foul by Fred on Carlos | :43:38. | :43:53. | |
Sanchez. I think that they will be going long with this one, two Mario | :43:54. | :44:03. | |
Yepes. Zuniga, running into the outstretched hand, and the free kick | :44:04. | :44:08. | |
has been given against Henrique for that hand. -- against Hernanes. This | :44:09. | :44:18. | |
is what we have been waiting for. Quintero to take. Ospina is coming. | :44:19. | :44:36. | |
Quintero with the ball into the box. Up go the heads, and it came off Ram | :44:37. | :44:42. | |
oss, it is a goal kick. -- it came off Ram oss. | :44:43. | :44:52. | |
Look at them, desperate to get that one clear. There are still 30 | :44:53. | :45:05. | |
seconds of five to play and the referee is entitled to add more, if | :45:06. | :45:09. | |
he feels that he should. Look at Ramires chasing this. Good play by | :45:10. | :45:16. | |
Ramires. Has he won a free kick? Yes, he has, and that might get them | :45:17. | :45:23. | |
over the line. We know about his engine, Ramires. It has not been | :45:24. | :45:30. | |
convincing in the second half. That is it. Brazil have gone through. | :45:31. | :45:37. | |
Brazil are into the semifinals of their own World Cup. David Luiz, | :45:38. | :45:44. | |
matchwinner. With a stunning free kick. But they had to hang on after | :45:45. | :45:53. | |
that James Rodriguez penalty. Brazil, through the mill again. But | :45:54. | :46:00. | |
through, to the semifinal. Brazil two, Colombia one. Brazil make it | :46:01. | :46:06. | |
through to the semifinals of the World Cup they are hosting. Join us | :46:07. | :46:10. | |
again for another World Cup replay very soon. | :46:11. | :46:15. |
