On Friday, Uruguay overcame Argentina 2-0, ending their undefeated streak.
After Araujo put the game away, Darwin Nunez of Liverpool put the game away with a spectacular goal that beat Emi Martinez.
The legend gave the Uruguayan squad high marks for their counter-attacking prowess in an interview with TyC Sports.
He went on to say that it’s feasible because of great players like Darwin Nunez.
His words were:
“Uruguay are good at rebounding and playing in space on counter attack. They have excellent players for that like Darwin [Núñez]…”

He has contributed to four goals and four assists in eleven league outings for Liverpool.
In five games for his nation, he has scored three goals and set up two more.
