A statmement of intent from Uruguay in Belo Horizonte as they trounce Ecuador 4-0 to get their campaign off to a flying start. Nicolas Lodeiro opened the scoring after just six minutes, before a Jose Quintero red card set up a grim day for Ecuador. Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez would add to the lead in the first half, with an Arturo Mina own goal adding insult to injury for La Tricolor.
90' + 2' Suarez and Cavani charge forward on the break, with the latter playing in the former, who is promptly tripped up by Mina, who hardly tries to mask his intentions.
