FIFA World Cup · Round of 16 · 28 June 2014

The Chest and the Volley

Colombia 2–0 Uruguay · Maracanã Stadium, Rio de Janeiro

Chest it down, swing the left foot, off the bar, in.

Abel Aguilar's header dropped to James 25 yards out. He took it down on his chest and hit a left-footed volley that went in off the underside of the bar. He added a second after the break, and Colombia reached the quarter-finals for the first time.
