Spain eliminates Uruguay, Cape Verde makes history and qualifies from second

Group H has given the final verdicts in the World Cup.

Spain finished the group stage as leaders after a narrow 1-0 victory over Uruguay in Guadalajara, thanks to a goal from Álex Baena (42') after a blunder by veteran goalkeeper Fernando Muslera.

This defeat, coupled with Agustín Canobbio's red card in extra time, led to the early elimination of Marcelo Bielsa's Uruguay.

The big surprise of the group is Cape Verde, which in its first ever participation in a World Cup has booked its ticket to the round of 16.

The African team drew 0-0 with Saudi Arabia, securing second place on full merit, and as a reward in the next round they will challenge the reigning world champions, Argentina.
