Javier Hernandez and Oribe Peralta both scored as El Tri advanced to the last eight at the centenary tournament, while sending Uruguay home.
Mexico booked its spot in the quarterfinals of the Copa America Centenario after overcoming Jamaica 2-0 in Pasadena, California, on Thursday.
Javier Hernandez scored his 45th international goal and Oribe Peralta came off the bench to secure back-to-back wins for in-form Mexico, which withstood a spirited Jamaica display to eliminate Group C rival Uruguay in the process after the 15-time champions lost 1-0 to Venezuela earlier in the day.
