MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – Some 34,000 soccer fans -- who were wearing mostly yellow, blue and red -- filled half of the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens on Friday night.
The stadium's capacity is about 65,000. The majority of the fans were from Colombia, and they were still celebrating the 14 FIFA World Cup Russia ranking. The Venezuelans who were wearing their burgundy red jerseys were the minority at the stadium.
Colombian won 2-1 with Yimmi Javier Chará Zamora's last-minute goal. The Colombian midfielder, who is the brother of midfielder Diego Chará, also plays for the Brazilian club Atlético Mineiro.
GOL! Colombia 2-1 Venezuela. Little Yimmi pinches the win at the death after scrambling the ball through a wall of players from close range. Morelos had initially blocked Chara's shot on the line with his arse, but Yimmi forces home the rebound.
