China Cup final report: Thailand 0 Uruguay 4

The Hindu  

Uruguay cruised to a 4-0 defeat of Thailand in the China Cup final on Monday. Thailand had surprisingly knocked out Fabio Cannavaro's China in the semi-finals but found Uruguay a much stronger proposition at Guangxi Sports Center Stadium. Striker Cristhian Stuani added a third after the break to finish as the mini-tournament's top goalscorer, with Maxi Gomez also on target late on to secure the China Cup crown.

Siwarak Tedsungnoen saved from Stuani early in the second half but Uruguay extended their lead from the resulting corner, the Girona striker nodding in Giorgian De Arrascaeta's cross.
