FIFA U-17 World Cup - Group G: Colombia 2-0 DPR Korea

Doha: DPR Korea fell to a 2-0 defeat against Colombia in their FIFA U-17 World Cup Qatar 2025 Group G tie on Monday.

Despite the defeat, the East Asian side - who finished with four points - advanced as one of the best third-placed teams.

Germany pipped Colombia to the top spot on goal difference, with both sides accumulating five points.

Two first-half goals proved the difference as Colombia secured their passage to the last 32.

Miguel Solarte gave the South Americans the lead in the 25th minute as his left-footed effort deflected beyond the despairing dive of Kim Jong Hun.

Colombia tightened their grip on proceedings soon after, as Santiago Londono raced through and was felled by the goalkeeper.

The striker dusted himself down and powered home the spot-kick in the 33rd minute to settle proceedings early.
