Enjoying a comfortable 3-0 victory over Uzbekistan thanks to Gaston Pereiro’s goal and Cristhian Stuani's double, Uruguay booked a place in the final of the China Cup.
The national team of Uzbekistan took Australia to penalties in the last 16 of the Asian Cup earlier in January but found Uruguay a step up in class on Friday.
First-half goals from Gaston Pereiro and Stuani set up a final against Thailand on Monday, with hosts China having suffered a shock 1-0 defeat in their last four meeting, and a late Stuani strike sealed matters.
