The 'Wall of China' in front of Colombia is the Venezuelan goalkeeper 
Venezuela's start in the Copa America was pushed by Corona. In the first match against Brazil, the weakest team in South America lost 3-0 without 9 regular players. But Venezuela drew 0-0 with Colombia last night. The biggest contributor to the draw was Venezuelan goalkeeper Wilker Farinez. Two of the teams that took part in the Copa have never won a title, Venezuela being one of them. Venezuela were able to take just one shot in their goal post against Brazil. They also failed to take more than one shot in the two halves of the match against Colombia. In contrast, Colombia could not score with 16 shots. French club Les's goalkeeper Farinze has saved eight alone. In the meantime, a shot from Colombian midfielder Mateus Uribe's bicycle kick was blocked by Farinaz. Colombian goalkeeper David Ospina congratulated Farinez on his chest at the end of the match. Colombia coach Reynaldo Rueda also congratulated Farinez, saying, "Congratulations to the goalkeeper of the opposing team for his outstanding performance. He has deprived us of celebrating goals. We have to do a good finishing. ' Farinez made 5 saves in the first half. He saved 6 shots taken from inside the box in two halves. Farenz holds the record for most joint saves in a Copa America match since 2006. Paraguay goalkeeper Gatito Fernandez made so many saves against Brazil in the 2006 Copa America. However, the Colombian attack has shown incompetence in finishing. They could not take such a good shot from inside the box. Colombian forward Miguel Borha scored in the 90th minute but was ruled out due to offside. Colombia's Luis Diaz saw a red card in the 4th minute of added time. Brazil tops the table with 6 points from 2 matches in Group B. Colombia with 2 points in their equal match. Venezuela, which is in the top three with 1 point after playing 2 matches, also has a chance to reach the quarter finals.
