In fact this mentioned fixed play was the difference

SPAIN 3 URUGUAY 1 | INTERNATIONAL FRIENDLY
Just got in from the local after sharing a lager with the mates. There we enjoyed a good match of Football between SPAIN & URUGUAY in their Friendly International match played in the Middle-East nation-state of Qatar.
The final result 3 - 1 to Spain that looks at first glance one-sided but had chances going to Uruguay & if they had converted would have given a closer picture. This does not say

Forlan at the double as Uruguay are South American Champions
COPA AMERICA 2011 FINAL
Estadio Monumental, Buenos Aires, Argentina
URUGUAY 3 : 0 PARAGUAY
Suarez 12', Forlan 42', 89'
Uruguay won the Copa America by a canter this afternoon to confirm themselves as undisputed champions of South America, a record 15th victory for Las Charruas.
A skillful early strike from Luis Suarez set them on the road to victory and a brace from another sharp marksman Diego Forlan made it sure.
From early on it was clear that the World Cup semi-finalists were the better team. Paraguay, who curiously had reached the final without winning a game, found themselves on the back foot in the 12th minute.
Suarez's quick feet allowed him to nip inside his marker and rifle a shot into the far corner to give Las Charruas the lead. Uruguay doubled their lead four minutes before the break when Forlan finished off a zig-zagging move after stealing the ball in Paraguay's last third.
Two down at the interval, Paraguay had to come out and play and managed to hit the crossbar through Nelson Valdez in the 54th minute, but they could not make inroads. Then the arrival of substitute Edinson Cavani in the Uruguayan attack just after the hour reminded us which team had more talent to call upon.
Paraguay pushed upfield and had plenty of play in Uruguay's last third, but had a wall of sky-blue shirts in front of them. Pablo Zeballos had a decent penalty appeal waved away in the 70th minute, which might have let his team back into the game.
But as the minutes ticked away and Paraguay maintained their siege without penetration, the risk of counter-attacks grew bigger. One such raid a minute from time saw Forlan, that exquisite finisher, find the net again to complete a comprehensive victory.
In winning the Copa America for the first time since 1995, Uruguay also qualify for the 2013 Confederations Cup in Brazil.
Peru won third place, defeating Venezuela 4-1. Peru's Pablo Guerrero finished top scorer of the tournament with five goals, one more than Suarez.
URU - Muslera, M. Pereira, Lugano, Coates, J. Caceres (Godin 88'), Gonzalez, D.Perez (Eguren 69'), Rios, A. Pereira (Cavani 63'), Forlan, Suarez
PAR - Villar, Piris, Da Silva, Veron, Marecos, Vera (Estigarribia 64'), Ortigoza, V. Caceres (H.Perez 64'), Riveros, Valdez, Zeballos (Barrios 76')

Mexico take Azteca gold
FIFA U-17 World Cup Final
Mexico 2:0 Uruguay, Azteca Stadium, Mexico City, 98,943
It all ended sweetly for the host nation as Mexico's Under 17 team won the World Cup in front of a partisan sea of green in the Azteca today.
Captain Antonio Briseno's goal just after the half hour gave the home team the cushion and Giovani Casillas' breakaway finish in injury time at the end of the 90 sealed a perfect day for El Tri.
Uruguay can count themselves unlucky having hit the post twice but offered little
in offensive threat after the break when it was needed. Their final perhaps was their impressive 3-0 elimination of Brazil in the semi. When Uruguay's Juan San Martin frapped the woodwork on the hour it looked like was going to be Mexico's day and with the crowd behind them, their confidence grew.
Azteca gasps turned to roars moments after San Martin's chance as Julio Gomez entered the fray, still sporting the head bandage worn by many fans in homage to his semi-final heroics. The psychological momentum of the game was Mexico's.
With the senior team winning the CONCACAF Gold Cup last month, the capture of the U17 World Cup completes a summer of love for the Central American powerhouse. Perhaps one of the world's great sleeping giants is finally on the road to greatness.
