Copa America: Nunez features as Uruguay finish third

Darwin Nunez featured in the first half as Uruguay took third place at the Copa America by defeating Canada on penalties overnight.

The Liverpool forward completed the opening 45 minutes in North Carolina, where the third-place play-off ended 2-2 after 90 minutes.

Rodrigo Bentancur and Ismael Kone traded goals early in the game, before Jonathan David put Canada ahead with 10 left to play.

Former Reds striker Luis Suarez equalised in added time, however, and Uruguay went on to win the penalty shootout 4-3.

They therefore finish third in the tournament, with Alexis Mac Allister’s Argentina set to face Luis Diaz’s Colombia in the final.
