Four of Suarez Makes Uruguay Shine

Luis Suarez lit up the scoreboard and torched the net in for Uruguay today's COMMBOL World Cup 2014 Qualifier against Chile in Montevideo, Uruguay. Los Charrúas displayed a dominant performance against the Chilean side in a lopsided match for La Celeste.

 With Alexis Sanchez, Arturo Vidal, Jorge Valdivia, and Gonzalo Jara all out of the match, La Roja was already prepared to face an uphill battle against the COMMEBOL favorites.  With the exception of Humberto Suazo, the Chilean team had a limited attack, that showed little signs of life through the match, not to mention that Vidal's and Valdivia's absence left the gap in the midfield wide open for the Uruguayans to weave through the pitch with ease.

At the end of the first 45, La Celeste was able to hold a comfortable 2-0 lead. Suarez continued to rain goals with a stunning laser header in the 67 minute. Six minutes later, he was able to wrap the game up with a low screaming blast to the bottom left side of the helpless Chilean goalkeeper Claudio Bravo.  

Based on Suarez's recent play in the Premier League, a performance like today's match was long overdue. Suarez was able to find the onion bag on four different occasions and finish in astonishing fashion.

Uruguay now finds themselves in the same position they were in after this past summer's Copa America, which is being on top of the highly touted COMMEBOL region.  Next on tap for Uruguay is a Friendly Match against the streaking Italians.
