Edinson Cavani's late header gives Uruguay a 1-0 win over Copa America holders Chile.
Uruguay beat Chile 1-0 and advance to the quarter-final in the Copa America.
The striker glanced Jonathan Rodriguez’s cross into the net in the 82nd minute to break the deadlock in a finely balanced game played with a fierce competitive edge even though both teams had already sealed their place in the last eight. Chile, who had eased to victory in their first two games with Japan and Ecuador, came close to taking the lead in the second half when Paulo Diaz headed towards goal, but Uruguay defender Jose Gimenez nodded the ball off the line.
A spectator got onto the pitch late in the game and after evading security guards was tripped by Chile defender Jara.
