Uruguay vs Saudi Arabia
Uruguay scored first in a surprisingly competitive half of soccer. The Saudi side lost their previous match to the host country Russia 5-0 in the tournament’s opening match. Saudi Arabia faces elimination with a loss today.
Participation in a soccer tournament is based on repetitive success. Despite the glory of being chosen, early elimination retains a touch of sadness after years of preparation.
The match plodded through the second half with Uruguay sitting back in a defensive formation. The Saudi attempts to attack out of the midfield were effectively shut down.
Uruguay will meet Russia in Group A’s final confrontation in the group stage. Both teams are assured of advancing to the 16 team elimination portion of the tournament.
