HOUSTON, June 11 (Xinhua) -- Costa Rica defeated Colombia 3-2 in the Copa America in Houston's NRG Stadium on Saturday night, ending Group A play in the leading global soccer tournament being held in the United States this year.


The first goal was scored by Johan Venegas who put Costa Rica up 1-0 with a 20-yard strike to the upper left hand corner in the second minute. Costa Rica took the lead when Venegas crossed the ball into the box from the left and Colombia's Frank Fabra accidentally ran into it and knocked it into the net as he fell to the ground for an own goal in the 34th minute. Celso Borges of Costa Rica scored from 15 yards out in the 58th minute to extend the team's lead to 3-1.


Frank Fabra and Marlos Moreno scored Colombia's two goals. And it was Moreno who cut it to 3-2 with a strike to the near post in the 73rd minute.


Colombia had already advanced before this match, earning a berth in the quarterfinals with a win over Paraguay on Tuesday and Costa Rica was eliminated from contention with the United States' 1-0 victory over Paraguay earlier on Saturday. The loss makes Colombia's path in the tournament more difficult as the team will likely face Brazil in New Jersey because of the loss.


The United States benefited from Costa Rica's victory, with Colombia's loss giving the team first place in Group A.

MANILA Nike Air Presto BR Marina Scontate , Aug. 1 (Xinhua) -- Foreign ministers from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and their counterparts from Asia and Pacific will meet here this weekend to tackle a slew of issues and celebrate ASEAN's 50th anniversary, the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs said on Tuesday.

The annual ASEAN foreign ministers' meeting (AMM) and its related meetings bring together the Southeast Asian foreign ministers, the ASEAN Plus Three (APT), the East Asia Summit (EAS) and the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF).


The statement said the foreign ministers of ASEAN's 10 dialogue partners will also meet individuals with ASEAN during the Post-Ministerial Conferences.


The Philippines, the rotating chair of ASEAN this year Scarpe Nike Air Presto Qs Bianche Scontate , host all the meetings. As ASEAN will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of its establishment, a "grand celebration" of its milestone event will be held on Aug. 8.


Bolivar said the ministers are expected to issue several documents during the course of the week, including the ASEAN Ministerial Meeting Joint Communique, the chairman statements for the EAS Scarpe Scontate Nike Air Presto SE Woven Bianche , and various post-ministerial conferences, the APT and the ARF.


Bolivar said the ministers are also expected to issue a separate statement on terrorism. "I think there is one in the works but I cannot really go into the details yet as of now. But I think that's on one of the expected outcome documents," he told a press conference at the Malacanang presidential palace.


Philippine Foreign Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano will chair the 50th AMM plenary and retreat, the 18th APT foreign ministers' meeting Scarpe Nike Air Presto High Ultra Flyknit Bianche Scontate , the 7th EAS foreign ministers' meeting as well as the 24th ARF plenary and retreat.

Cayetano will also chair the Interface of the ASEAN foreign ministers with the representatives of the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission of Human Rights, and the meeting of Southeast Asia Nuclear Weapon-Free Zone Commission. He will also join the foreign ministers of the Southwest Pacific Dialogue for its 15th ministerial meeting.

Metro Manila's police chief Oscar Albayalde said the police has deployed more than 13,000 policemen to secure and guard more than 1,700 delegates who will participate in the meetings.


The high-level meetings take place as Philippine security forces battle to retake the southern Philippine city of Marawi from heavily-armed militants allied with Islamic State extremists who laid siege to the city on May 23.


The ongoing war has so far claimed the lives of 661 people, including 502 terrorists nike air max 97 uomo scontate , 114 security forces and civilians.
