World Cup Game #17

[catalyst2]

Uruguay came out against South Africa firing, in really different style to their first game where they were cautious and defensive. South Africa did try hard and came close on occasion but they were playing a far better team. Diego Forlan looked much better this time - and Uruguay looked much better for that. Better still was the fact that Uruguay didn't just score a single goal and then shut up shop. Instead they kept attacking right through the game and got the result they needed, a 3-0 win.

France and Mexico are going to have to be very careful if they want to get out of this group with Uruguay in this kind of form.
