Game # 21 - Colombia vs Cote d'Ivoire

[catalyst2]

This was an exciting game that could have gone either way - Colombia took it 2-1 in the end but they were under tremendous pressure in the last twenty minutes, with Gervinho getting one in that time but the elusive second proving beyond them. Both Colombian goals were nicely crafted team goals that showed just how well this team can string their passing and running game together. The result means that Colombia is definitely through to the second round and Cote d'Ivoire can get there if they beat Greece, given that it seems unlikely that Japan can beat Colombia.
