FIFA World Cup
Uruguay 0 – 1 Spain FT
Spain secured a 1-0 victory over Uruguay, eliminating the South American team from the World Cup after a costly error by goalkeeper Fernando Muslera. Alex Baena’s late first-half goal ensured Spain topped Group H, while Uruguay finished with just two points from three matches, marking their second consecutive group stage exit. Coach Marcelo Bielsa’s decision to substitute Muslera at halftime highlighted the team’s struggles, as they managed only one shot on target throughout the match. Spain will face Austria or Algeria in the knockout stage, while Uruguay’s performance raised concerns about Bielsa’s tactics and the team’s overall direction.
