Forecasts were met for the final of the Copa America 2011 and was proclaimed Champion Urugay to a convincing 3-0 defeat to Paraguay. A match that showed the huge difference between the potential of both selection and making the whole charrúa a more than worthy winner of the trophy. Tabarez were those least more during the championship, and finished crushing in its way, the Paraguayans.
For as we have said repeatedly throughout this Copa America, Uruguay does not practice the most brilliant football, but has adopted a running style to perfection. A style based on leverage their strengths, which are none other than his staunch defense and his prodigious attack. When Uruguay steals, does not relax in search of touch, but a direct seeking their offensive pillars: Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez. That couple has much of the credit of the victory of heaven.
From the first whistle, it was found that Uruguay would be too much for Martin. Sometimes clear from the first minute, and several corners in the boot. One of them found the head of Coates, and his shot was cleared between Justo Villar and immediately hands Ortigoza. Fagundes should have whistled penalty and expulsion, but fortunately that play is an anecdote after the final result.
Because few minutes later, Luis Suarez marked the first individual move. The Liverpool footballer has re-signed an outstanding performance that helped him to be voted player of the Copa America. An award which could also have been worthy Diego Forlan. Atletico's other two goals achieved, both in the final stretch both first and second part-but throughout the tournament was key in the game of your choice. Forlan has proved to be much more than a scorer.'s a fantastic team player, leader, sacrifices, for his teammates, organizes them ... In the face of door has not been his best month-to this end, and yet their role has been the protagonist.
You can not say the same of Paraguay, either through their work, defense, or luck, stood in a final that was clear was too big. Especially when we saw Martin on the bench left some of his best men, as Lucas Barrios Barreto Estigarribia or, to plant a feisty eleven more rocky. The bet went wrong from the moment that Suarez scored the first, and the reaction of the changes came quickly.
Paraguay had chances to get into the game, especially at the beginning of the second half when the crossbar Valdez an excellent shot. But in reality, never saw the Uruguayan uncomfortable or overwhelmed. His defense is so organized network and it's so hard to beat that make a goal is a nearly impossible task. And yet, for them is relatively easy to achieve with just two attacking players. An example is the third goal, with Paraguay and dump. An excellent starting backlash from the defense, and ending with a pass from Cavani that cushions the head to let Forlan Suarez hand in hand and make the final 3-0.
This is the 15 nd America's Cup to Uruguay, making it the team with the most revisions due ahead of the fourteen Argentina. Congratulations to all the fans in Uruguay for a title well deserved. The triumph of a team that exemplifies perfectly that football can play well and win with different styles.
