Uruguay Home Shirt World Cup 2010

December 8, 2009

Uruguay have won the World Cup twice back in 1930, the first every World Cup, and in 1950. Uruguay are the smallest country ever, by a considerable distance, to have won the World Cup with a population of only 4 million people the next one up from them is Argentina with 40 million people. Uruguay won more international titles in the 20th century than any other country and have won the Copa America a record 14 times.

The fortunes of Uruguay at the World Cup have not unfortunately come close to their previous triumphs with Uruguay failing to qualify for 5 of the last 8 World Cups. Uruguay have however qualified for the 2010 World Cup so we will get to see the Uruguay World Cup shirt at next years tournament.

Uruguay finished 5th in their World Cup qualifying campaign which earned them a spot in the play-off against Coast Rica which they won 2-1 which is why we will see the new Uruguay shirt participating in South Africa and not Costa Rica. Although Uruguay have not participated at too many World Cup’s recently they have still done very well in South American football and should not be taken lightly at the World Cup.

The new 2010-11 Uruguay home football shirt is available in sizes S, M, L, XL, XXL with the official Uruguay football kit shirt printing available for the Uruguay soccer jerseys of all your favourite players Diego Lugano, Martin Caceres, Luis Suarez, Diego Forlan and Sebastian Abreu.
