World Cup: Olivera's Uruguay knocked out despite win over Ghana
Mathias Olivera played 90 minutes for Uruguay as they beat Ghana 2-0 but narrowly missed out on a place in the World Cup knockout stages.
Giorgian de Arrascaeta's first-half double saw Uruguay moved above Ghana on goal difference but a late winner for South Korea against Portugal in the other game saw them clinch second place on goals scored.
