Jose Izquierdo will not forget his return to international action in a hurry.

Albion's electric left-winger helped Colombia to a remarkable victory over France in Paris tonight.

Izquierdo, on as a substitute, won the decisive late penalty as the South Americans came from 2-0 down after 26 minutes to win 3-2 and emphasise their credentials as dark horses for the World Cup finals in Russia in the summer.

Izquierdo's form for the Seagulls earned him a call-up from coach Jose Pekerman, nine months after his last appearance for his country.

He watched the drama unfold from the bench to begin with as Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud and Monaco midfielder Thomas Lemar put France firmly in charge.

Luis Muriel halved the arrears (28) and Radamel Falcao made it 2-2 (62).

Izquierdo replaced Muriel with 13 minutes remaining and won a penalty with five minutes left when Samuel Umtiti brought him down.

Juan Fernando Quintero converted from the spot to complete the turnaround.

Izquierdo's fortunes contrasted with those of Albion's other three internationals.

Davy Propper was a second half substitute for the Netherlands in their lacklustre 1-0 defeat by England in Amsterdam, inflicted by ex-Seagull Jesse Lingard.

Mathew Ryan let in four goals in a heavy defeat for Australia in Norway in Bert van Marwijk's first match in charge, although he could do nothing about three of them.

Shane Duffy's Republic of Ireland lost 1-0 in Turkey.
