Colombia Advances Past Ghana With First-Half Goal, Faces Switzerland in Round of 16

Jhon Arias scored in the 14th minute at Kansas City Stadium to send Colombia past Ghana 1-0 in the World Cup Round of 32 on July 4. The goal came from a Luis Suárez cross moments after Suárez entered as substitute for injured Jhon Cordoba. Ghana's Lawrence Ati Zigi made three saves to keep the deficit narrow.
