WATCH: Emotional scenes! Luis Diaz scores brace for Colombia vs Brazil with father in attendance less than a week after kidnapping release

Diaz's father was moved to tears in the Estadio Metrpolitiano stands after the winger scored twice to help Colombia overturn a 1-0 deficit. The two were reunited just 48 hours ago after Diaz's father was kidnapped in late October.

Diaz has only made a handful of appearances for Liverpool since his parents were kidnapped by members of the National Liberation Army in late October. His mother was released shortly after, but his father was held until November 9.

Tonight, the Colombian has his moment on center-stage, scoring twice after a rollercoaster two-plus weeks leading up to the night.

Diaz is set to play for Colombia next Tuesday, when they face off against Paraguay as they continue their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign.

Then, he's set to return to Liverpool as the Reds look to improve their table standings in the English Premier League.
