Costa Rica scored two goals in three minutes on the way to a shock Group D victory over an unconvincing Uruguay.


Edinson Cavani slotted in a first-half penalty to put Uruguay in front after Junior Diaz fouled Diego Lugano.
But, after the break, Joel Campbell lashed in a left-foot leveller and Oscar Duarte guided in a low header to give Costa Rica the lead.
Marcos Urena angled in a third for the Ticos before Uruguay's Maxi Pereira was sent-off for a rash foul on Campbell.
More to follow.
