Meet Uruguay, A Football Powerhouse


It has won two World Cups although it has only 3.4 million people. That's a lot of World Cups per capita if you ask me. 0.59 per million people as shown in the above chart if you want to know. Which is almost 9 times the number for the next country in the list: Italy. And 22 times that of Brazil which has yet to win one at home. From what we have seen in the Copa America, the Selecao has still a lot of work to do to avoid a repeat of the 1950 Maracana final in 3 years.

Uruguay seems to have a fatal attraction to dramatic exits... At last year's World Cup, Suarez let his team down against by getting suspended for biting before the Colombia match...
