scorers : URUGUAY Ormachea, Cardoso, Menchaca tries, pen try: Aguirre conv(2),pen
comments : In front of a small crowd in a small club ground, this opening game in Pool A had plenty of atmosphere. The oldest ever World Cup player, Uruguay's captain, Diego Ormachea(40 yrs old!) sent the crowd wild when he scored Uruguay's first ever World Cup try. The Uruguayans, in their first World Cup finals game piled on 4 tries and celebrated as though they had won the Cup itself - a perfect advertisement for the inclusion of the minnows in the World Cup final series.
referee: C.White (Eng) crowd: 3,761 half time: ( 6 - 10 )
