Colombia 0-0 Chile: Honors even on Falcao return

Nov 10, 2016 6:01:05 PM

Colombia and Chile battled it out for a share of the spoils in Thursday's CONMEBOL World Cup qualifier as Claudio Bravo suffered an injury.

Radamel Falcao's return from the international wilderness failed to spark Colombia into life as they were held to a 0-0 draw in their CONMEBOL World Cup qualifier with Chile.

Falcao had not featured for Colombia in 13 months prior to Thursday's clash in Barranquilla, but his second-half introduction could not inspire the hosts to victory.

Opportunities were at a premium for the Monaco striker as Colombia failed to significantly strengthen their position in the top four of the qualifying group - James Rodriguez and substitute Luis Muriel wasting late half-chances.
