Round-upInternationals: Darwin Nunez shines for Uruguay with a goal and assist
Darwin Nunez was on the scoresheet and provided an assist as Uruguay beat Brazil 2-0 in their World Cup qualifier overnight.
The 24-year-old's first-half header set his side on their way to a vital victory in Montevideo, and Nunez later set up his side's second goal for Nicolas de la Cruz in equally impressive fashion.
Liverpool teammate Alisson Becker was an unused substitute for Brazil in the game.
Alexis Mac Allister, meanwhile, played 90 minutes as Argentina defeated Peru 2-0 in Lima, courtesy of two Lionel Messi goals, to maintain their perfect start to CONMEBOL World Cup qualification.
Luis Diaz also played 90 minutes, unfortunately seeing a second-half penalty saved as Colombia drew 0-0 with Ecuador in Quito.
