Buenos Aires (Reuters) – Two goals a few minutes before half-time, one of which was Lionel Messi’s very lucky counter, helping Argentina beat Uruguay 3-0 in Sunday’s World Cup qualifying. Martinez made up for the mistake when he changed the low cross from DePaul in the second half in the 17th minute. Uruguay, who finished the fourth day at the table of 10 teams, was undefeated in eight games entering the match on Sunday. They brought the game to their rivals, with Luis Suarez approaching three times in the first 30 minutes. Edinson Cavani played in the second half of Uruguay, but it was Argentina that had a chance in an interesting match with 15 fouls and no warning.
