Colombia off to winning start in Copa America

James Rodriguez scores twice in 2-1 victory over Paraguay

James Rodriguez created both goals in Colombia's 2-1 win over Paraguay in their opening Copa America Group D game in Houston on Monday.

The Real Madrid star set up Carlos Bacca for the opener in the 12th minute and then doubled the lead himself just after the half-hour mark.

Paraguay pulled a goal back through Edgar Benitez in the 61st minute, but Colombia held on to claim all three points.

The victory puts Colombia top of Group D, ahead of the United States and Costa Rica who drew 0-0 in the other game.

Colombia will now face Costa Rica in their next game on Friday, while Paraguay will take on the United States.
