Colombia vs Portugal - World Cup Group K LIVE: High-stakes showdown for top spot as Cristiano Ronaldo and Co seek victory while Colombia need only avoid defeat
Jhon Arias and James Rodriguez make way for Quintero and Castano.
James Rodriguez receives a standing ovation. The Colombian fans still have so much love for the veteran, who now plies his trade at Minnesota United.
James Rodriguez fires towards goal and a deflection prevents it from threatening Diogo Costa, and it goes out for a corner kick.
Hydration break in Miami.
One player who we've barely seen tonight is Luis Diaz. The 29-year-old Bayern Munich winger has struggled to influence the game in a match which has largely been played on that right wing of Colombia's attack when they're going forward.
That said, Colombia just need a draw to clinch top spot. So as things stand, they will be happy to keep things as they are. And Diaz is one of those players who always seems to pop up with a moment of magic.
Sorry guys, there were a couple of substitutions for Colombia which I'm late to (it's 2am and the coffees running low).
Luis Suarez and Richard Rios came on for Jefferson Lerma and Jhon Cordoba.
Diogo Dalot finds Joao Felix in acres of space, and the Al Nassr winger puts the ball through to his team-mate, Ronaldo.
Ronldo drags the shot wide, but has his blushes saved by the offside flag. He'd have buried that any other day of the week, but he's been struggling to get his line right this evening, and another Portugal chance goes astray.
This is the first time this game feels like it's entered a lull. It's been such high-octane, inevitably these players will be starting to feel the effects - particularly given how hot and humid it is in Miami tonight.
It's impossible to call which way this one's heading.
Diogo Dalot sends a wonderful ball into the box and Joao Felix is unmarked, but the former Chelsea man is unable to direct it downwards and it flies over Camilo Vargas' bar.
Joao Felix really should have done better there. If things don't go Portugal's way tonight, that chance will be haunting him.
There's two changes for Portugal as Diogo Dalot comes on for Joao Cancelo while Joao Neves replaces Ruben Neves.
Roberto Martinez has acted swiftly. He clearly wants some more legs around that midfield and defensive areas. Perhaps, as Wayne Rooney said at half-time, to make up for the lack of legs up front.
Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo's former Manchester United team-mate, on BBC:
They've got to work harder. Ronaldo didn't defend that much when he was 23, never mind 41. The players around him have to do a bit more work, but they know that, Roberto Martinez knows that. Ronaldo hasn't really connected well with the team.If he's not doing that work, then that other players have to do that. And this is what's concerning for Portugal. They're walking back, no intention from them whatsoever. That could really punish Portugal in the second half.
Riath Al-Samarrai at Hard Rock Stadium:
Never thought I’d see the day Davinson Sanchez dominated Ronaldo, but halfway there.
The commentators have been begging the referee not to blow the half-time whistle, and I couldn't agree more! What an incredible first half.
I need to rehydrate after that one, wow.
Luis Diaz sends a tame shot towards Diogo Costa and it's a Colombia goal kick. It follows a Portugal break, with Bruno Fernandes well tracked to reclaim Colombian possession.
This has been absolutely breathless stuff so far. More like a NBA game than an NFL game at the Hard Rock Stadium!
