Things to say

Portugal and Colombia played out a goalless draw at the World Cup, finishing nil-nil at Hard Rock Stadium.

01
opener
Yeah, nil-nil, proper grind at the Hard Rock. Both sides cancelled each other out and nobody could find the net. Honestly a point apiece feels about right.
02
key player
Diogo Costa was the difference for Portugal, six saves to keep the clean sheet. Colombia threw everything at him and he stood on his head.
03
hot take
Ronaldo had three shots and not one of them troubled the keeper. At this point he's there for the badge, not the goals.
04
deep cut
Davinson Sánchez put in twelve defensive interventions for Colombia. Quiet game, but he basically ran their whole back line.
05
exit
Anyway, with that draw it's all gonna come down to the last group game. Should be a tense one.
The recap

Goalless and grinding at the Hard Rock, Portugal and Colombia played out a nil-nil that nobody could break open. Diogo Costa was the difference for Portugal, pulling off six saves to keep his clean sheet intact, while Camilo Vargas had a quieter night at the other end.

Ronaldo led the line with three shots but couldn't find the net, and Davinson Sánchez was a wall at the back with a dozen defensive interventions for Colombia. A point apiece, and honestly the keepers carried this one.
