Diego Forlan scores double to clinch win for Uruguay
Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) --
An inspired Diego Forlan scored twice as World Cup hosts South Africa’s hopes of progressing to the knockout stage suffered a heavy blow with a 3-0 loss to Uruguay on Wednesday.
Forlan opened the scoreline in the 24th minute and recorded double in the 80th minute from penalty. South Africa keeper Itumeleng Khune was sent off after he was ruled to have brought down Luis Suarez.
A last-minute header from Alvaro Pereira rubbed in the defeat and sent the despondent home support at the Loftus Versfeld rushing to the exits.
