Uruguay head into their last Group H match against Ghana knowing they have to win to have a chance of making it through to the second round.

Diego Alonso's team are faced with the do-or-die match against the African nation thanks to a 2-0 defeat to a Bruno Fernandes-inspired Portugal on Monday night. The Manchester United man scored both the goals - one a cross that evaded everyone and the other a penalty - as the South Americans were soundly beaten.

That result guaranteed a round-of-16 place for the Europeans but also means Luis Suarez and Co will have to sweat it out on Friday when they face Ghana. Victory would be good enough to ensure a second round spot only if Portugal beat South Korea in their last group match.

The defeat to Portugal also made headline as a protestor carrying a rainbow flag and wearing a blue Superman T-shirt that said "SAVE UKRAINE" on the front and "RESPECT FOR IRANIAN WOMAN" on the back. Security officials chased the protestor down and the flag was dropped on the field.

What is Uruguay's World Cup record?

Uruguay have twice won the World Cup, starting with the inaugural tournament in 1930, when they beat Argentina 4-2 in front of their home fans at the Estadio Centenario in Montevideo.

They also won the 1950 World Cup in Brazil, their first tournament since winning the trophy in 1930, when they beat the hosts 2-1 in the final match in Rio de Janeiro.

The furthest Uruguay have gone since is the semi-finals in South Africa in 2010. They finished fourth in that tournament after losing the third-place play off to Germany.
