A goal off a free-kick from Barcelona star Luis Suarez, followed by an own goal from Denis Cheryshev and a 90th-minute strike from Edinson Cavani handed three easy points to Oscar Tabarez’s men.
Here we take a look at all of Uruguay’s goals in animation.
An exquisite free-kick struck low into the bottom corner, by Suarez, gave Uruguay the lead in the 10th minute.
After Lucas Torreira’s corner is headed clear, it some how reaches Diego Laxalt on the edge of the box who takes a shot at goal. While it looked like it was heading wide, Cheryshev’s touch acts as a deflection and the ball ends in the back of net, as Igor Akinfeev couldn’t do much about it.
It came late in the game, but Cavani finally got his first goal for Uruguay in the tournament. Another corner kick from Torreira was headed by Diego Godin, whose shot is saved by the goalkeeper but Cavani’s rebound makes it 3-0.
