Charity match

-

Brazil have invited Colombia to play a friendly match next month with proceeds from the game going to families of the Chapecoens­e players and staff killed in the Medellin air crash, a Brazilian Football Confederat­ion spokesman said yesterday. Last week’s disaster, which killed 71 passengers and crew, plunged Brazil into mourning. ‘‘The idea is that the game will be against Colombia, for all that represents,’’ the spokesman said.
