  • Uruguay Es El Campeón De La Copa América De Fútbol
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown Los celestes son los máximos ganadores del torneo con 15 títulos, uno más que Argentina.Autor: Internet Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:11 pm Uruguay es el campeón de la Copa América de fútbol Los celestes golearon 3-0 a Paraguay este domingo y ahora son los máximos ganadores del torneo con 15 títulos, uno más que Argentina Publicado: Domingo 24 julio 2011 | 05:00:27 pm. Publicado por: Juventud Rebelde Se veía venir desde que eliminaron a la selección argentina en cuartos de final: Uruguay es el campeón de la Copa América de fútbol. Los celestes golearon 3-0 a Paraguay este domingo y ahora son los máximos ganadores del torneo con 15 títulos. Luis Suárez hirió a los paraguayos con su remate a las redes en el minuto 12 y Diego Forlán puso los demás (minutos 42 y 89), reencontrándose con el gol tras más de un año sin marcar vestido de celeste. El resto fue pura garra y aguantar frente a un Paraguay que se sintió el cansancio de dos partidos previos de 120 minutos y definición por penaltis. Los guaraníes tuvieron algunas ocasiones de descontar en el segundo tiempo, pero la suerte se cansó de ayudarlos y esta vez les dio la espalda. Ganó el fútbol y ahora Uruguay jugará la Copa Confederaciones de 2013 en Brasil, como representante de Sudamérica. Para ese torneo ya están clasificados también, junto al anfitrión Brasil, España por su título de campeón mundial, México en representación de CONCACAF y Japón por Asia.
