Explaining his decision to celebrate scoring for Barcelona against Espanyol in 2018, Mina said at the time: “I always try to be happy, to show the happiness I have inside and to transmit it to those around me.

“I am happy on a personal level and also because the team played a great match.

“I had already said to my family that I was going to enjoy my first goal.”

Mina equalised for Columbia against England in the 2018 World Cup last 16 with last minute header.

But the Three Lions went on to secure a famous win on penalties, with Columbia left heartbroken.

Now, they are on course for redemption with a semi-finals against Argentina on Wednesday.
