Uruguay ‘match’ for anybody’

OSCAR TABAREZ expects his Uruguay side to be tough opponents for whoever they may meet in the next round of the World Cup after sealing their passage with a 1-0 victory over Mexico.

The win in Rustenburg which was down to a 43rd-minute Luis Suarez strike helped La Celeste finish top of Group A.

Despite the loss, the Mexicans still ended in second place.

Tabarez said: “Of course we’ve analysed all the possibilities for us. “I think so far in this phase we’ve showed that we are a tough team to tackle for the others.

“We are trying to do what we had exactly in mind before the tournament.

“Uruguay is now a difficult opponent for anybody.”
