Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani dazzled Friday night by scoring a first-half goal as Uruguay sealed an excellent 3-0 victory over Colombia in the World Cup qualifiers. .

Colombia, led by brilliant James Rodriguez in attack, tried to find a way to return to the game and enjoy the ball more, yet were unable to find a way past Uruguay goalkeeper Martin Campana..
The visitors doubled their lead early in the second half with a penalty kick, when the former Liverpool player finished Suárez from 12 yards after a foul on Rodrigo Bentancourt. . He scored the third goal in the 73rd minute with Darwin Nunez’s right-footed shot from outside the penalty area.

Cavani was substituted after 78 minutes and Uruguay’s victory over Metropolitano Roberto Melendez leaves them in sixth place on CONMEBOL’s schedule.

The top four teams will automatically qualify for the 2022 World Cup, while the fifth-placed team will play a play-off intercontinental match for another place in Qatar..

Uruguay will face Brazil in a huge match on Tuesday at Centenario Stadium in Montevideo at 23:00 GMT and we will have a report on Wednesday morning..
Cavani will then return to Manchester, as the Reds prepare to return to the Premier League against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday 21 November..
