WATCH: Luis Suarez ties Hernan Crespo’s World Cup qualifying scoring record

Luis Suarez has tied Argentina legend Hernan Crespo’s record for goals in South American World Cup qualifying with his 19th goal in the competition’s history. He did so with this great finish to give his side the lead vs. Colombia:

You won’t see many finishes better than that from such a tight angle. He had no room for error and his the target perfectly to give Uruguay the lead in the 73rd minute.

Unfortunately, Colombia would find an equalizer before full-time to earn a share of the points, but the goal was extra special as it tied Crespo on the all-time CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying list.
