REST OF STATS
This Uzbekistan vs Colombia Group K clash is a game that we wonder what other sport these teams could actually meet in. Maybe something involving a horse? Looking at Google, the first non-soccer option was Futsal. Moving on from boring ourselves, this is Uzbekistan’s first World Cup, a momentous enough occasion that we bought an Uzbekistan jersey to proudly wear. We’ll probably only get three chances this World Cup. Colombia are World Cup regulars but there’s little buzz or dark horse hype about them this year.
