Yerry Mina’s Colombia may have been on the losing side against England but the Barcelona player did become the first defender to score a goal in each of his first three World Cup matches in tournament history.
Gareth Southgate's team dominated the tie for the last 16, Mina stood up exceptionally to score a 93-minute pitcher that South Americans were lucky enough to achieve.
Barcelona has been very far from the actions of the former star of Palmeiras since they arrived at the club, and it has been decided that they will be allowed to leave this summer.
After having been left on the bench by Jose Pekerman for the tournament opener against Japan, Mina has been an ever-present in the team since and has performed fantastically well.
In addition to his goal-scoring exploits, Mina has formed a fine partnership with Davinson Sanchez and the team have been defensively solid.
All 3 of his goals have been headers and he’s now entered World Cup history with no defender having ever scored in their first three matches.
