"

In a side featuring Luis Diaz and James Rodriguez, it seems remarkable that Colombia's greatest threat in this World Cup has come from a wing-back. It is now two goals in two games at the tournament for Crystal Palace's Daniel Munoz - and he might reasonably think it should be more. It is no exaggeration to say he could have had a hat-trick in their 1-0 win against DR Congo.
