Uruguay and Brazil faced each other on Tuesday, October 17, within the framework of the fourth round of the South American Qualifiers 2026. Although both teams came out strong, the solid defense on both sides prevented the opening goal. However, it was the Uruguayan team who took advantage of a defensive lapse from 'Scratch', scoring the 1-0 through Darwin Núñez.
The first half ended with Uruguay leading 1-0. The challenge now is to maintain the advantage and secure the victory in this crucial match. With the score in their favor, the tension is palpable. The Uruguayans continue to seek opportunities to extend their lead in this exciting match at the Estadio Centenario.
In the 75th minute of the game, the Uruguayans maintain their supremacy against a Brazilian team that seems disoriented on the field and has failed to find an effective strategy to equalize the score. Uruguay was saved when Rodrygo's free kick hit the crossbar, avoiding Brazil's equalizer.
Despite Brazil's attempts to find the equalizer, Uruguay's defense continues to show firmness and determination. The match remains a competitive challenge at the Estadio Centenario, with Uruguay leading 1-0 since the beginning of the second half.
