Uruguay vs South Korea at the World Cup

Both of these teams have previously reached the latter stages of the FIFA World Cup, though only one of them has actually gone on to raise the trophy aloft.

Uruguay were victorious at the inaugural edition of the World Cup back in 1930, with a 4-2 victory over Argentina. Two decades later, at the 1950 World Cup, the Uruguayans overcame host nation Brazil to clinch their second world title.

In more recent times La Celeste reached the World Cup semi-finals in 2010, although they were beaten 3-2 by the Netherlands before also losing by the same scoreline against Germany in the third place play-off.

South Korea, meanwhile, made it to the World Cup semi-finals in 2002, having co-hosted the tournament together with Japan. The Koreans finished top of their group before also defeating European giants Italy & Spain in the knockouts, but ultimately failed to navigate a way past Germany in the semi-finals. The Tigers of Asia subsequently lost to Turkey in the third place play-off, staged in the city of Daegu.

Uruguay vs South Korea Head-to-Head

Leading up to the 2026 World Cup these nations had previously faced one another no fewer than three times at the quadrennial showpiece. The first of these occurred in 1990 when Uruguay snatched a 1-0 win in the final batch of group-stage matches.

Their next meeting at the World Cup took place in 2010, this time in the knockout phase. Luis Suarez scored twice for Uruguay to claim a 2-1 victory over South Korea and advance to the quarter-finals.

The teams reconvened at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, once again at the group stage, and they played out a goalless draw. The Tigers of Asia ultimately progressed to the Round of 16 at the expense of Uruguay, having scored more goals than the South Americans.
