Ronald Araujo celebrates win over Brazil and Vinicius Jr with Uruguay

Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo has been celebrating after helping Uruguay beat Brazil 2-0 in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday.

Goals from Darwin Nunez and Nicolas de la Cruz gave Uruguay the victory that sends them above Brazil on goal difference in the standings and into second place behind Argentina.

The center-back had another good night up against the likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Neymar and will be loving the fact his team kept a clean sheet.

Araujo did pick up an early booking but it was the only blemish on an otherwise superb night for the Barcelona defender.
