The following are five of the best so far according to Reuters.James Rodriguez (Colombia 2 Uruguay 0)Rodriguez had already caught the eye in the first round but his opener against Uruguay in the Round of 16 confirmed him as one of the players of the tournament.
After a bit of head tennis on the edge of the Uruguayan box midway through the first half, the ball arched toward Rodriguez, 25 meters out.
He had the presence of mind to glance over his shoulder to check the positioning of the Uruguayan goalkeeper before chesting the ball down and, in one fluid movement, turning and firing a left-foot volley in off the underside of the crossbar.
