Senegal are out of the World Cup - on the yellow card rule.
Colombia sparkled in their last game versus Poland, but knew they were up against a dangerous African side this time around.
But Yerry Mina's header secured them a 1-0 win in Samara on Thursday to clinch their safe passage to the last 16.
They finished top of Group H, while Senegal missed out to Japan on a fair play tiebreaker.
And they came for Africans in the final few minutes of their previous match against... Japan.
Following 74 minutes of tense football with few chances, Mina stooped to score the crucial goal from a corner and send the yellow-clad Colombian fans wild in the Samara Arena.
Senegal, who had most of the better play in the first half, thought they had a penalty when Mane went down in the area on 17 minutes.
