Uruguay Held by Colombia in Goalless Draw
Diaz's Cross Fails to Connect
In a hard-fought contest, Uruguay and Colombia played to a 0-0 draw in the Copa América semi-final at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. Despite several close chances, neither team could find the back of the net.
Rodriguez Threatens
Uruguay came close to breaking the deadlock in the first half when Darwin Nunez found Edinson Cavani in the box. However, Cavani's shot was blocked by Colombia goalkeeper Camilo Vargas.
Munoz's Header Just Wide
Colombia had a golden opportunity to take the lead late in the second half. Johan Mojica sent a teasing cross into the box, which was met by Miguel Borja. Unfortunately, Borja's header sailed just wide of the target.
Conclusion: A Tense Stalemate
The match ended in a frustrating draw for both teams. Uruguay will be disappointed not to have capitalised on their chances, while Colombia will be relieved to have held on despite playing most of the second half with ten men.
