Uruguay Wins Copa America

Behind the play of Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez, Uruguay beat Paraguay 3-0 in the Copa America final today. Suarez scored the games first goal in the 12th minute, while Forlan scored in the 41st and 89th minute. Uruguay controlled the game from start to finish with their pressuring defense, offensive ingenuity and Paraguay's lack of offensive firepower. It's the 15th time Uruguay has won the tournament and the first time since 1995. This championship run comes after Uruguay's impressive and surprising performance in last year's World Cup in which the team finished in 4th place.
