It was about this time last year I convinced myself Jhon Arias was a potential world-beater, watching him illuminate the Club World Cup for Fluminense.
He then went to Wolverhampton Wanderers and in a struggling team, made little or no impact in the Premier League before returning to Brazil — with Palmeiras, controversially.
He has made a big impact on this game, first of all with an ugly challenge on Marvin Senaya that appeared to result in an injury to the Ghana defender, and now with that lovely cushioned finish to put Colombia ahead.
