Brazil lost their second consecutive World Cup qualifier match as Colombia fought back to win 2-1 against the five-times champions, who are winless in the last three games and dropped to fifth place in the South American standings on Thursday.
It was a cathartic evening for Liverpool forward Luis Diaz who, just a few days after Colombia guerrillas freed his kidnapped father, scored twice within four minutes late in the second-half to give his country the shock win, after Brazil got an early lead with a Gabriel Martinelli strike.
Brazil suffered the loss of Real Madrid winger Vinícius Júnior, who suffered a left leg injury and was replaced in the 26th minute.
Colombia is third on nine points, one ahead Venezuela who was held to a goal less draw at home by sixth-placed Ecuador, who is one point behind Brazil that is fifth on seven points.
