🇺🇾 Uruguay — WC2026 Schedule

Uruguay won the first-ever World Cup in 1930 as hosts and added a second title in 1950 with the 'Maracanazo' — stunning Brazil 2-1 in the final at the Maracanã in front of nearly 200,000 spectators.

With a population of just 3.5 million, Uruguay is the smallest country to have won the World Cup. Their per-capita success rate in football is unmatched by any nation on earth.

Uruguayans are famous for 'garra charrúa' — a warrior spirit that defines their playing style. It means fighting until the last second regardless of the score, and it's embedded in the national identity.
