NewsInternationals: Diaz nets for Colombia, Alisson keeps Brazil clean sheet
By Joe Urquhart
Liverpool’s No.7 netted for his nation with a diving header from inside the six-yard box following a corner, in a 1-1 draw with Peru.
Diaz’s strike came eight minutes from the end and earned his country a share of the spoils after a goal from Alexander Callens in minute 68 had given the hosts a slender advantage.
Elsewhere in World Cup qualifying in the South American section, goalkeeper Alisson Becker completed the full contest and kept a clean sheet for Brazil in their 1-0 victory over Ecuador.
Rodrygo’s effort on the half-hour mark was enough to settle the contest.
