MORE: The worst No. 1 MLB Draft picks of all time The key play of the game was a two-run homer by Coastal’s G.K. Young in the sixth inning.

Both teams scored their first two kicks in the shootout but while substitutes Dayro Moreno and Sebastian Perez scored Colombia’s third and fourth, Miguel Trauco and Christian Cueva missed for Peru. The result, which came after a dour 0-0 draw that was short on excitement for the 80,000 fans, takes Colombia through to a semi-final date against either Mexico or Chile in Chicago next Wednesday. “It was a very intense game,” said Colombian goalkeeper David Ospina, who saved Trauco’s kick with his legs....
Colombia progressed to the World Cup last 16 as winners of Group H thanks to a 1-0 triumph over Senegal in Samara on Thursday. However, they were forced to play without the talismanic James for two thirds of the contest, after the Bayern Munich playmaker was replaced by Luis Muriel. A calf injury meant James was forced to start on the bench in the opening game against Japan, but he returned to the first XI against Poland last time out and put in a sparkling display, setting up two goals in a resounding 3-0 success....
The following are the most common food colorings that have been reported to cause allergic reactions: Tartrazine Also known as FD&C Yellow Dye #5, tartrazine has been suspected as the cause of many reactions, including urticaria (hives) and worsening asthma and eczema. A study published in 1976 in Clinical Allergy, looking at 140 asthmatics, showed a significant cross-reactivity between aspirin and tartrazine. A review of six studies published in 2001, however, found tartrazine did not negatively impact asthma in most individuals, but the authors also noted that firm conclusions could not be reached without more data....

With the Colts facing the Steelers on Thanksgiving night, McAfee politely requested via Twitter that Steelers wide receiver-punt returner Antonio Brown not stomp his face during the affair. MORE: NFL Week 12 Power Rankings McAfee’s concerns aren’t baseless. You may remember that in 2014, Brown karate-kicked Browns punter Spencer Lanning square in the jaw. It was the best Jean-Claude Van Damme impression we’ve seen on a football field. Well, Pat, here’s to hoping you can chew your turkey with an intact jaw after Thursday’s matchup....

The Line: New England -10, Total: 55 Line movement: The Patriots opened as low as -6.5 in Vegas, and, despite Andrew Luck listed as probable, the line shot up to double digits. The huge line swing is “based on Luck not being 100 percent and the public betting the Patriots regardless of the line,” Ed Salmons told The Linemakers on Sporting News in a text message. “Also, sharps have not bet the Colts at any number so far....
As if on cue, Woods’ game started looking a little more familiar, too. A birdie on the first hole was just the start he needed. Another on the fourth got even the normally reserved British golf fans cheering. As he stood in the middle of the sixth fairway with an 8-iron in his hand for his second shot on the par 5, Woods seemed poised to leap onto the leaderboard....
This was their chance to help bring Tiger Woods home. “Tigah,” they shouted as Woods hacked out of the rough and then stuck a wedge to 3 feet on the final hole. “Go on Tigah!” If it wasn’t exactly Tigermania, it was close.

Even defending champion Jordan Spieth seemed ordinary, in a round where he was doing some extraordinary things....
The PlayStation 3 got its own version of the app last year, much to the delight PS3 owners, unless they were also a Comcast customer. In that case, the HBO Go app is useless, since the service provider actively blocked the app. Some were hopeful that HBO and Comcast would come to some sort of agreement by the time the app launched on the PS4, because surely the block wouldn’t last too long....

Other skilled impressionists say Hillary’s lack of a distinctive accent (her husband’s), facial tic (Dubya’s squint) or memorable phrase (“Wouldn’t be prudent”) has made her tricky to capture. “There aren’t a lot of sharp angles to Hillary,” says former “SNL” star Ana Gasteyer, who played her prior to Poehler. Teresa Barnwell, a professional Hillary look-alike since 1993, doesn’t even try to imitate her voice, focusing instead on a perfect haircut, a black pantsuit and an eerie physical similarity....
