Colombia coach Jose Pekerman says the team's 3-0 win over Poland was dedicated to midfielder Carlos Sanchez, who was sent off in the first group match and received a death threat.
Pekerman said Sanchez ''has had a very hard time these last few days. We achieved this victory and I wanted to share it with him. I'm expressing it personally but it's something that the whole squad feels.''
Sanchez was given a red card in the third minute against Japan last Tuesday for a handball in the penalty area. Japan scored the resultant penalty and went on to beat Colombia 2-1.
Authorities in Colombia have said they are investigating a death threat made against Sanchez on social media. The ominous message referenced Andres Escobar, who was shot and killed days after returning to Colombia from the 1994 World Cup, where he scored an own-goal in a loss to the host United States.
Pekerman said that Sanchez, who served a one-match ban and wasn't eligible to play against Poland, ''was deeply affected by this matter.''

Poland got away to an aggressive start and tried to impose a fast pace, pressing its opponents very high on the pitch and winning most of the duels in the opening minutes.
Colombia gradually settled in, though, with its midfielders providing attacking width and playmaker Juan Quintero being a constant threat.

Switzerland's soccer federation president does not expect FIFA to suspend Granit Xhaka and Xherdan Shaqiri for their goal celebrations against Serbia.
Peter Gillieron says he expects a ''quick decision'' after FIFA announced a disciplinary case late Saturday for the players making hand gestures of a two-headed eagle that is an Albanian national symbol.
Xhaka and Shaqiri have ethnic Albanian heritage linked to Kosovo, a former Serbian province that declared independence in 2008. Serbia does not recognize that independence.
Gillieron says in an interview published by Swiss news website ''20 Minutes'' that ''I don't have any concerns'' about FIFA's disciplinary committee suspending the players for Switzerland's game against Costa Rica on Wednesday.
FIFA rules prohibit political gestures by players or fans, and let the disciplinary panel act on ''serious infringements which have escaped the match officials' attention.''
Xhaka and Shaqiri, whose 90th-minute goal gave Switzerland a 2-1 win, would likely have been shown a yellow card at the time for their celebrations.

A day after being put under investigation by FIFA for complaining about the refereeing of their 2-1 World Cup loss to Switzerland and misbehavior by fans, Serbia's football association says it has filed an official complaint with football's governing body alleging ''biased officiating'' by referee Feliz Brych.
In a statement posted on its website Sunday, the Football Association of Serbia says it has submitted to FIFA ''seven videos that clearly showed tendency in officiating of the referee Brych to the detriment of our national team.''

England coach Gareth Southgate cautioned that the cannily taken photo of training ground notes that ruffled feathers between the team and the media didn't indicate what the lineup could be for Sunday's World Cup game against Panama. He was right.
Raheem Sterling retained his place in the starting lineup after an underwhelming performance in England's opening win against Tunisia even though the photo indicated he could be dropped.
Publication of the photo led to criticism of the British media among some former players and fans for potentially giving the opposition an edge.
Southgate told reporters he doesn't expect ''the media to be supporters of us in terms of the way they work,'' adding ''the guys have to find stories and produce content. We have to get results.''
England has already produced a record result with a 5-0 lead over Panama at the break that virtually guarantees it will advance.

Defender John Stones also scored twice to see England cruise toward a place in the last 16. An England win over the World Cup first-timer would see it qualify and also send Belgium through as well. They would play Thursday to determine who wins the group.
Stones opened the scoring with a header from a corner in the 8th minute. Kane made it 2-0 from the spot in the 22nd.
Jesse Lingard got the third with a sublime curling shot off the crossbar in the 36th. Stones got his second before Kane again fired in from the penalty spot in first-half injury time.

France forward Antoine Griezmann is confident his World Cup form will pick up following a slow start.
Although he earned and scored a penalty as France opened its campaign with a 2-1 win against Australia, he had a quiet game otherwise and was substituted by coach Didier Deschamps with 20 minutes remaining.
Griezmann was taken off with 10 minutes left in the 1-0 win against Peru, following another frustratingly below-par performance.
But Griezmann, the European Championship's top scorer two years ago, is confident he can repeat his Euro 2016 exploits.
He tells French soccer show Telefoot, ''I will get better and better. It was the same at the Euros. It was only after the (second round) that I started to play very well.''
Midfielder Paul Pogba praised Griezmann for his ''enormous'' work-rate when tracking back to defend against Peru.

Denmark midfielder William Kvist, who was sent home after sustaining two broken ribs and a punctured lung after a hard collision in a match against Peru last week, is set to return to the World Cup.

Hareide says Kvist went through examinations in Denmark which showed there was no substantial injury to the lung.
''It's now only the fractures on the ribs that give him problems,'' Hareide told TV2. ''So we have to see if he's fit to train after the match against France.''

Croatia defender Dejan Lovren says teammate Luka Modric would be a contender for the world's best player of the year award if he played for one of the supposed powers of international football.
Modric has been one of the standout players at the World Cup, scoring in both matches - including a long-range shot against Argentina - to help Croatian qualify for the knockout stage with a game to spare.
Lovren says ''Modric would probably be getting more attention than he is right now if he was a German or Spanish player - he would maybe even be a Ballon D'Or winner.''
The Liverpool defender adds: ''Because we are a smaller country, he does get less attention than he deserves.''
Croatia plays Iceland in their final Group D on Tuesday.
