Colombia v Greece
Live coverage of the opening Group C match between Colombia and Greece in Belo Horizonte, introduced by Gary Lineker. With commentary from Simon Brotherton and Kevin Kilbane.
Gary Lineker introduces live coverage of the World Cup match between Group C rivals Colombia and Greece, which takes place in the Estadio Mineirao in Belo Horizonte.
The Colombians are making their first World Cup appearance for 16 years, but Los Cafeteros are tipped to do well at the tournament. Although the serious injury suffered by star man Falcao has disrupted their preparations, they still boast plenty of attacking flair, with the likes of Monaco's James Rodriguez and Fiorentina's Juan Cuadrado helping them to qualify in some style. Their creative skills will be needed against a Greek side who are notoriously tough to break down. Fernando Santos's men are not to be underrated though - they reached the quarter-finals of Euro 2012 thanks to a surprise victory against Russia.
