Uruguay ended their group stage match against Ghana with a confident win in round 3. However, it was not enough to qualify for the 1/8 finals of the tournament.
The match started with traditional explorations. But gradually, the Latin Americans outlined their intention to own the initiative.
The Africans launched an attack with a Jordan Ayew shot from the lines of the penalty area. The keeper kicked the ball in front of him and Kudus fell after contact with his opponent – the referee awarded a penalty after VAR intervened. However, Andre Ayew failed to beat Rochet from the spot-kick.
In the 32nd minute, Suárez crossed the ball at the entrance to the penalty area and De Arrascaeta gave the opponents an unstoppable shot from outside the box to make it 0-2 in the first half.
The end of the match passed at a relaxed pace as everyone came to terms with their roles.
