THE BIGGER PICTURE: Cavani’s furious reaction was an extension of Uruguay’s unsavoury behaviour at the full-time whistle, which saw players and coaching staff angrily approach the referee, protesting decisions made in the game.

WHAT NEXT FOR URUGUAY? Victory over Ghana wasn’t enough for the Celeste as late drama in Group H’s other match saw South Korea beat Portugal 2-1 and progress to the last 16 on goals scored. Uruguay, meanwhile, are making sure they don’t go home quietly.
