HARRISON, N.
LaDarius Gunter Packers Jersey .J. - James Rodriguez scored in the 75th minute as Colombia beat Canada 1-0 in an international soccer friendly Tuesday.Despite a valiant effort for 90 minutes, Canada found that Colombia and World Cup stars Rodriguez and Radamel Falcao were too much to handle.The Colombians brought pressure in the first half, but Benito Floros Canadian squad held well from the back line, got world-class goalkeeping from Milan Borjan, and even pushed forward, earning a few set pieces.Florio was happy with the defensive effort but still felt unfulfilled by his sides performance.We played mostly defensively today, not the way we would have liked, he said through a translator following the match. We wanted to play a little bit more offensive, but we actually played with them, that was good for us.Canadas best chance, however, may have been negated by a non-call on Alexander Mejia, who appeared to take down forward Tosaint Ricketts.Ricketts received an excellent through ball from Issey Nakajima-Farran, but the call wouldnt go the way of Ricketts. Colombia toyed with the Canadian defence, but put nothing through for more than an hour.Colombia finally scored when a quick restart off a free kick in the 75th minute, it was one touch to Rodriguez from Juan Quintero, and he needed only one touch before driving a bending ball from 25 yards out to beat Borjan. Canada had no time to set up a wall, but Floro felt that was out of a lack of preparedness.We discussed this with the players and we told them Colombia were very smart, very quick, and a lot of the set-pieces they work on played the ball quick, said Floro. Our players got distracted and (the goal by Rodriguez) was what happened.After all of the fancy footwork from Colombia failed to beat the Canadians, it took all the might and craft of the worlds best striker to finally knock them down on Colombias fourth shot on target.University of Connecticut standout Cyle Larin had a scoring chance late in the game but was stopped by Colombian keeper Camilo Vargas. An ensuing free kick proved fruitless, and that was it for the Canadians.We had a couple chances, we shouldve scored that chance we have, but at least we got the experience out of it, Larin said. When this game was announced, I was amped, ready to play. James scored a great goal, and you cant take anything away from them.A loss is a loss, but the Canadians came away from the match emboldened.I think, as a team defensively, we played really good, said Borjan, who made three saves in net for Canada. Were still missing the attack, but we played the third-best country in the world, so I think we did very, very good as a team.We had to play well defensively. We have a very young team, inexperience, but we showed tonight that we can play together, and we improved.Larin agreed that the loss could be a learning opportunity for Canada.Theyre a great technical team. Its a process, and we played really well, said Larin. Hopefully in a couple years well be really good and be able to make it to a World Cup.With the loss, Canada dropped to 1-4-4 under Floro since his hiring in July 2013. Their next match will be against Panama in Panama City on Nov. 18.Note to readers: This is a corrected story. An earlier version reported that substitute Luca Gasparatto had Canadas lone shot when it was, in fact, Cyle Larin.

CURITIBA, Brazil -- Defending champion Spain salvaged some World Cup pride on Monday with a convincing 3-0 victory over Australia in their last match at the tournament. After losing their previous matches in Group B to the Netherlands and Chile, both teams took to Arena da Baixada in the southern Brazilian city of Curitiba knowing they could not advance to the second round. David Villa, on his 97th and final appearance put Spain ahead in the 36th minute with his record 59th goal, guiding Juanfran Torres pass into the net with the inside of his right foot. Juanfran had been found by a typically incisive pass by Andres Iniesta. "We stepped up against Australia and won this match, and Im happy to have participated in the first goal," said the 32-year-old Villa, who has called time on his international career. "Its sad because we would have liked to have spent more time here, but thats how it is." Iniesta was at the heart of the second goal too, providing the pass for Fernando Torres to steer the ball past Australia goalkeeper Mat Ryan in the 69th minute. Juan Mata, who replaced an emotional Villa early in the second half, added the third in the 82nd from close range, stroking the ball under Ryan after he was found in space by fellow substitute Cesc Fabregas. David Silva, who also came on late, went close in the 89th but his shot from outside the area went just wide. Though nothing, in terms of World Cup progress, rested on the game, Spain showed some of the clever passing football that has seen it dominate the game over the past six years -- winning Euro 2008, its first World Cup in South Africa in 2010 and then Euro 2012. With that domination now at an end, the task facing Spain is to manage the transition from an aging squad that has won everything in the game to a new generation of players waiting to take centre stage. "We went out with dignity," Del Bosque said. &qquot;These have been six years of which we have been first in the FIFA ranking, a generation of players that have taught others, and have shown themselves," he added.

In the early minutes of the match, Australia took the game to the champions, but it wasnt long before Spain asserted control and started dominating possession. "We started bright enough but you have to give credit to them, they are a quality team," Australia coach Ange Postecoglou said. "We looked jaded, tired, and gave away the ball too easily, so its disappointing." Australia, which lacked bite up front through the suspension of Tim Cahill, finished with zero points, its worst ever performance in a World Cup. On its 1974 debut, Australia garnered a point. However, the Socceroos were in an extremely tough group and pushed the Netherlands hard during its 3-2 defeat. For its part, Spain avoided the worst World Cup title defence in history. That label remains with the France team of 2002, which only secured one point in its goal-less campaign in the tournament co-hosted by South Korea and Japan. "What happened is in the past now," Spain midfielder Xabi Alonso said. "We tried to face our situation in the best manner possible. This is football, though, and we go home sad." ------ Lineups: Australia: Mat Ryan, Ryan McGowan, Jason Davidson, Matthew Spiranovic, Alex Wilkinson, Matt McKay, Mile Jedinak, Oliver Bozanic (Mark Bresciano, 72), Tommy Oar (James Troisi, 61), Matthew Leckie, Adam Taggart (Ben Halloran, 46). Spain: Pepe Reina, Sergio Ramos, Raul Albiol, Jordi Alba, Juanfran Torres, Koke, Xabi Alonso (David Silva, 83), Santi Cazorla (Cesc Fabregas, 68), Andres Iniesta, Fernando Torres, David Villa (Juan Mata, 56).
