Venezuela’s Wuilker Farinez may have just put together one of the most prolific performances by a goalkeeper in recent Copa America history.

Colombia finished with a scoreless draw in its Copa America group stage fixture against Venezuela.

Even though Colombia recorded 23 total shots, the side simply could not get one past Farinez, who finished with eight saves in the match.

In one such save, the soon-to-be RC Lens goalkeeper denied FC Porto’s Mateus Uribe of a set piece goal.

With the way the fixture was going, this very well could have been the game-winning goal of the bout.

While Colombia comes away from this result disappointed, the side is still well on track to advance to the knockout stage of this tournament thanks to the four points recorded from its opening two group stage matches.
