A first half Luis Suarez goal was enough to secure all three points for Uruguay as they beat Saudi Arabia 1-0, just as I predicted.
Despite coming away with all three points Tabarez will be disappointed that his team did not do any bettermanaging just three shots on target, while Saudi Arabia managed 2.
Saudi Arabia enjoyed more possession than Uruguay but lacked the creativity to threaten.
This victory means that, just as I predicted, both Uruguay and Russia have qualified from Group A leaving Saudi Arabia and Egypt with nothing left to do but book their flights home.
