Colombia finish as Group K winners with Portugal second after entertaining draw

Colombia secured top spot in Group K after an entertaining 0-0 draw against Portugal in their final group game, as Roberto Martinez's side finish as runners-up.

The South Americans knew a point would be enough to send them through in first, setting up a round of 32 tie against Ghana in Kansas City on Saturday July 4. They will face former boss Carlos Queiroz, who had a disastrous spell in charge between 2019 and 2020.

Portugal - who had to win to earn first place - will face Croatia in Toronto on Friday July 3 and could potentially face Spain in the last 16.

Colombia could have secured all three points as Davinson Sanchez's late goal was ruled out for offside on-field. VAR checked it and concurred, with replays showing his toe was in an offside position.

Portugal could also have nicked it at the death, but Rafael Leao poked wide in what would have been a bitter blow for a Colombia side who had the better of the chances in an end-to-end game in a raucous Miami.

While neither side could produce the goal to entertain the masses - which included film stars Matt Damon and John Leguizamo - it will go down as one of the best goalless draws in tournament history, and the first time Colombia have failed to score in a World Cup match.

The key moments from Miami...

1: OVER! Jhon Cordoba sends a header over the bar within seconds of the kick off.

22: CLOSE! Ruben Neves clears Jhon Arias' effort almost on the line as Colombia go close again.

39: SAVE! Vargas makes a brilliant save to keep Fernandes out.

60: OFFSIDE! Cristiano Ronaldo drags his effort wide - but the flag is up.

62: CHANCE! Richard Rios almost scores with one of his first touches, but pokes around the post.

90+1: OFFSIDE! Sanchez fires home on a tight angle - but the flag is up. This is soon confirmed by VAR.

90+3: CLOSE! Leao pokes wide as Portugal go close to stealing a victory.

Rodriguez rolls back the years

Sky Sports' Charlotte Marsh:

"It was at the 2014 World Cup when James Rodriguez announced himself on the world stage. It earned him a move to Real Madrid - where he played with Cristiano Ronaldo, whom he had a friendly chat with as the two came back out at half-time.

"And unlike his Portugal counterpart, Rodriguez was influential for his country in the final Group K game.

"It was a reminder of the quality the 34-year-old possesses. His club career over the last few years has consistened of moves to various countries - including a spell at Everton - and he has not played a whole lot of high level football.

"You would've been fooled for thinking otherwise, such was his performance in Miami. Lots of Colombia's good attacking play - of which there was plenty - came from his sprayed passes, his vision and ability to find his teammates with precision.

"He created a joint-match high five chances, and also topped the charts for passes in the final third (43). He was also second for total duels (7) and possession won (4), showing his contributions across the pitch.

"The love Colombians still have for Rodriguez is clear. He was given a huge ovation as he came off as a substitute.

"His leadership and experience will be crucial as Colombia navigate the knockout rounds. They looked intense and dangerous going forward and will be a match for anyone they meet."

What the result means...
