BOGOTA (Reuters) - The piercing sound of horns and cheers of Colombia's football fans fell silent after their World Cup dreams were shattered in a nail-biting last-16 loss on penalties to England on Tuesday.

The teams faced a shootout after Colombia's Yerry Mina scored one of his signature headed goals in stoppage time to cancel out England captain Harry Kane's 57th minute penalty and the score was still level at 1-1 after extra time.
