Colombia defender Cristian Zapata has admitted that he is wary of Japan ahead of Tuesday's World Cup clash in Cuiaba.

Jose Pekerman's side are all but guaranteed to move into the last 16 as Group C winners, but Zapata has warned against complacency ahead of facing a "strong team".

"You have to think game by game," the AC Milan defender told a press conference. "Japan is a strong team and have good players. It is a tough game for us."

Tuesday's clash kicks off at 9pm.
