Coach: Óscar Tabárez

Two-time World Cup winners Uruguay claimed their first title in 1930 and won a second in 1950. Although the drought has been going for a while, Uruguay is looking promising after showcasing a solid performance in the South American qualifiers. They only reached the round of 16 at the 2014 World Cup Brazil after Colombia overpowered the team 2-0. They hope to get further this time with a strong core team, which includes star player Luis Suarez.
