Uruguay sealed their passage to the knockout stages of Copa America in style with a thumping win over Bolivia, and Rodrigo Bentancur was one of their goalscorers.
The Tottenham man has not started either of Urugway’s games so far at the tournament, coming on as a late substitute in place of Real Madrid’s Federico Valverde in both matches.
The South American side overcame Panama in their tournament opener before putting on a clinic at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey against Bolivia.
Uruguay emerged 5-0 winners on Friday, with Bentancur coming off the bench to net the final goal of the game. The Tottenham man made a smart run to the far post to meet a free kick with a thumping header.

Spurs Web Opinion
Bentancur was previously one of the first names on Urugway’s teamsheet.
The fact that he is not starting matches is a bit concerning as it is a sign that Marcelo Bielsa does not think that the midfielder is back to the level he was before his ACL injury.
