Colombia at the FIFA World Cup - wikipedia Colombia at the FIFA World Cup This is a record of Colombia 's results at the FIFA World Cup. The FIFA World Cup, sometimes called the Football World Cup or the Soccer World Cup, but usually referred to simply as the World Cup, is an international association football competition contested by the men 's national teams of the members of Fédération Internationale de Football Association ( FIFA ), the sport 's global governing body. The championship has been awarded every four years since the first tournament in 1930, except in 1942 and 1946, due to World War II. The tournament consists of two parts, the qualification phase and the final phase ( officially called the World Cup Finals ). The qualification phase, which currently takes place over the three years preceding the Finals, is used to determine which teams qualify for the Finals. The current format of the Finals involves 32 teams competing for the title, at venues within the host nation ( or nations ) over a period of about a month. The World Cup Finals is the most widely viewed sporting event in the world, with an estimated 715.1 million people watching the 2006 tournament final. Colombia has appeared in the finals of the FIFA World Cup on six occasions in 1962, 1990, 1994, 1998, 2014 and 2018.

At Chile 1962, Colombia lost 2 -- 1 to South American champions Uruguay in their opening match. They then drew 4 -- 4 with the reigning European champions Soviet Union in one of biggest shocks at Chile 1962. It should be noted that in this game, Colombia scored four goals against Soviet goalkeeper Lev Yashin, widely considered the best goalkeeper in football history. Also in that game, Marcos Coll scored the only Olympic goal in World Cup history. Additionally, in coming back from three goals down to draw the match, the Colombians completed the biggest comeback to draw in World Cup history. Unfortunately, their campaign ended with a 5 -- 0 defeat to Euro 1960 runners - up Yugoslavia, so they went out in the group stage.

Argentina advanced to the CONMEBOL / CONCACAF / OFC Intercontinental Play - off. Colombia finished top of their qualifying group without having lost a match, which included a historic 5 -- 0 win over Argentina in Buenos Aires. Expectations of the team were high, some even naming them as favourites to win the tournament. The match between Colombia and Romania was the first game for either side in the group phase. Romania took the lead in the 16th minute with their first attack of the match when Raducioiu took on three defenders before firing home a low shot. On the half hour mark, Hagi made it 2 -- 0 when he noticed Córdoba out of position and dipped a cross over his head into the net. Valencia pulled a goal back for the Colombians in the 43rd minute when he headed in a corner from Perez. In the second half, Raducioiu put the result beyond doubt with his second goal in the final few minutes. The team went into their second group game against the United States knowing they had to win to have any chance of progressing. On the 35th minute Andrés Escobar attempted to cut out a cross but accidentally deflected the ball into his own net. Earnie Stewart took the US two goals in front after scoring in the 56th minute. Valencia scored a consolation goal for Colombia in the closing minutes of the match.

Colombia midfielder Fredy Guarín was suspended for the match, after being sent off in the team 's final qualifier against Paraguay. Colombia took the lead within five minutes, Juan Cuadrado 's cutback was converted by Pablo Armero via a deflection off Greek defender Kostas Manolas. Colombia extended the lead in the second half, when Abel Aguilar flicked on a corner kick from James Rodríguez and Teófilo Gutiérrez scored from close range. Greece 's best chance fell to Theofanis Gekas, who headed against the bar. In stoppage time, Cuadrado set up James to complete the scoring with a low shot. The 3 -- 0 scoreline was Colombia 's biggest win to date in the World Cup. 14 June 2014 13 : 00 UTC − 3 Colombia 3 -- 0 Greece Armero 5 ' Gutiérrez 58 ' Rodríguez 90 + 3 ' Report Estádio Mineirão, Belo Horizonte Attendance : 57,174 Referee : Mark Geiger ( United States ) The two teams had never met before. After a goalless first half, Colombia scored first when James Rodríguez headed in Juan Cuadrado 's corner. The lead was extended six minutes later when Ivory Coast was caught in possession, and Teófilo Gutiérrez released substitute Juan Quintero to score. Ivory Coast reduced the deficit through Gervinho, who received a pass from Arthur Boka in the left wing, dribbled past three Colombian players and shot home. The second goal of the tournament by James allowed him to join Bernardo Redín and Adolfo Valencia as the only Colombian players to score more than one goal in the World Cup. 19 June 2014 13 : 00 UTC − 3 Colombia 2 -- 1 Ivory Coast Rodríguez 64 ' Quintero 70 ' Report Gervinho 73 ' Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha, Brasília Attendance : 68,748 Referee : Howard Webb ( England ) The two teams had met in two previous matches, most recently in a friendly in 2007, and also in the 2003 FIFA Confederations Cup group stage, won by Colombia 1 -- 0. Colombia took the lead mid-way through the first half, with Juan Cuadrado taking a penalty kick, shooting low down the middle after Japan centre back Yasuyuki Konno fouled Colombia striker Adrián Ramos in the box. Japan then equalised through Shinji Okazaki 's headed goal from a cross from Keisuke Honda on the right in first half stoppage time. Colombia 's James Rodríguez was introduced after the half time break, and was credited for providing two assists for two goals scored by Jackson Martínez, on 55 minutes when he shot low to the net with his left foot, and 82 minutes when he curled the ball in from the right of the penalty area with his left foot, before finishing off the scoring with a strike of his own, assisted by Ramos, where he beat the last man before clipping the ball over the goalkeeper. Colombia, which had already qualified for the knockout stage but needed a point to be certain of winning the group, finished as group winners with a perfect record of three wins out of three, while Japan, which had to win the match to have any chance to qualify, were eliminated. Faryd Mondragón became the oldest player to make an appearance in the history of the World Cup, at the age of 43 years, 3 days, when he came on for the last five minutes of the match, breaking the record of Roger Milla, who played at the 1994 World Cup at the age of 42. He also set the record for the longest time between World Cup appearances as 15 years and 363 days had passed since his last versus England at the 1998 World Cup, breaking Alfred Bickel 's record of 12 years and 13 days between appearances ( 1938 -- 1950 ). 24 June 2014 16 : 00 UTC − 4 Japan 1 -- 4 Colombia Okazaki 45 + 1 ' Report Cuadrado 17 ' ( pen. ) Martínez 55 ', 82 ' Rodríguez 90 ' Arena Pantanal, Cuiabá Attendance : 40,340 Referee : Pedro Proença ( Portugal ) Eighth - finals The two teams had met in 38 previous matches, including in the 1962 FIFA World Cup group stage, won 2 -- 1 by Uruguay. Their most recent meetings were in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, with both teams winning at home, Colombia winning 4 -- 0 and Uruguay winning 2 -- 0. Uruguayan striker Luis Suárez was not in the line - up because of a nine - game ban imposed by FIFA due to a biting incident involving Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini during their final group stage match. Colombia won 2 -- 0 with both goals from James Rodríguez, the first in the 28th minute, where he controlled Abel Aguilar 's headed ball on his chest before volleying left - footed from 25 yards out with the ball going in off the underside of the crossbar, which won the 2014 FIFA Puskás Award later in the year. The second goal, in the 50th minute, was a close - range shot from six yards out after receiving the ball from a header by Juan Cuadrado on the right. Colombia progressed through to the quarter - finals for the first time in their history, where they would face Brazil. 28 June 2014 17 : 00 Colombia 2 -- 0 Uruguay Rodríguez 28 ', 50 ' Report Estádio do Maracanã, Rio de Janeiro Attendance : 73,804 Referee : Björn Kuipers ( Netherlands ) Quarter - finals The two teams had met in 25 previous matches, but never in the FIFA World Cup. This was the first time Colombia had reached the quarter - finals of the World Cup. Brazil midfielder Luiz Gustavo was suspended for the match due to accumulation of yellow cards. Brazil took the lead in the 7th minute, when Neymar 's corner from the left was turned in from close range by Thiago Silva. They doubled the lead in the 69th minute when David Luiz scored directly from a long - range free kick, side - footing the ball over the wall and into the top - right corner. Colombia reduced the deficit with 10 minutes to go, when James Rodríguez converted a penalty kick low into the left corner and sent the goalkeeper the wrong way. The penalty was awarded after substitute Carlos Bacca was fouled by Brazil goalkeeper Júlio César. Neymar was kneed in the back by Colombia defender Juan Camilo Zúñiga in the 88th minute, which resulted in the striker 's withdrawal from the match. Subsequent medical evaluation discovered a fractured vertebra, forcing the Brazilian to miss the remainder of the tournament. Brazil advanced to the semi-final, where they faced Germany. James 's sixth goal of the tournament was enough for him to win the Golden Boot award. He also became the first player to score in his first five career World Cup matches since Peru 's Teófilo Cubillas ( across the 1970 and 1978 tournaments ). 4 July 2014 17 : 00 Brazil 2 -- 1 Colombia Thiago Silva 7 ' David Luiz 69 ' Report Rodríguez 80 ' ( pen. ) Estádio Castelão, Fortaleza Attendance : 60,342 Referee : Carlos Velasco Carballo ( Spain ) Colombia at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Final Standings Pos Team Pld GF GA GD Pts Qualification Brazil 18 12 5 41 11 + 30 41 Qualification to 2018 FIFA World Cup Uruguay 18 9 5 32 20 + 12 31 Argentina 18 7 7 19 16 + 3 28 Colombia 18 7 6 5 21 19 + 2 27 5 Peru 18 7 5 6 27 26 + 1 26 Advance to inter-confederation play - offs 6 Chile 18 8 8 26 27 − 1 26 7 Paraguay 18 7 8 19 25 − 6 24 8 Ecuador 18 6 10 26 29 − 3 20 9 Bolivia 18 12 16 38 − 22 14 10 Venezuela 18 6 10 19 35 − 16 12 Source : FIFA Group stage Group H Pos Team Pld GF GA GD Pts Qualification Colombia 0 5 + 3 6 Advance to knockout stage Japan 0 Senegal 0 Poland 0 5 − 3 Source : FIFA Rules for classification : Group stage tiebreakers Notes : ^ Jump up to : Fair play points : Japan − 4, Senegal − 6. 19 June 2018 ( 2018 - 06 - 19 ) 15 : 00 MSK ( UTC + 3 ) Colombia 1 -- 2 Japan Quintero 39 ' Report Kagawa 6 ' ( pen. ) Osako 73 ' Mordovia Arena, Saransk Attendance : 40,842 Referee : Damir Skomina ( Slovenia ) 24 June 2018 ( 2018 - 06 - 24 ) 21 : 00 MSK ( UTC + 3 ) Poland 0 -- 3 Colombia Report Mina 40 ' Falcao 70 ' Ju.
