Colombia has dominated their group in the Copa America, securing six points after two matches and sitting comfortably at the top. Costa Rica and Brazil are trailing behind with just one point each, while Paraguay is at the bottom with zero points and is set to face Brazil in their next match.

The Colombian team, known as 'Los Cafeteros', are on a winning streak, with their latest victory marking their tenth consecutive win and 25th match without defeat. They are determined to clinch their first Copa America title since 2001.

A draw between Brazil and Paraguay could solidify Colombia's top spot in the group, allowing them to avoid a potentially tough quarter-final against Uruguay. If not, a draw in their upcoming match against Brazil should be enough to secure their position.

Costa Rica, despite their loss, are still in contention with one point. They will need to win their final match against Paraguay and hope for favorable results in other matches to progress.

Colombia's performance in their latest match was impressive, with Diaz scoring from a penalty in the 31st minute and Sanchez adding another goal in the 59th minute. Cordoba sealed the victory with a well-timed finish three minutes later.

The Colombian team's determination and skill were evident throughout the match, showcasing their potential to go far in the tournament. With their eyes set on the Copa America title, 'Los Cafeteros' are proving to be a force to be reckoned with in the competition.
