Tioté at least proves that CIV is alive.

Beautiful attack, albeit offside, awful finishing.

Jordan never fully understood basketball. He had the lowest basketball IQ of any NBA "superstar" in history.

Teo choked big time. Probably worse the Busquets yesterday

With Falcao this game is arguably 2-0

Until now, CIV is playing pickup soccer, no flow whatsoever. Lucky for them it is still 0-0.

James Rodriguez is a bit sloppy with his passing but god he has vision.

Aurier is really good.

Colombia play some fantastic through balls and crosses. James and Cuadrado got tekkers. If only they had a healthy Falcao :(

Seriously, didn't CIV have a training camp or so? Their offensive execution is laughably bad.

Ivory Coast is the least sucky African team, they have short flashes of coherent plays.

Bacca would have scored Teofilo's chance too :-?
