Suarez seals last eight: Uruguay 2-1 South Korea

Wave from the friendly stadium
Asian counter meets Latin guile
Charruas face warrior might
To settle may take a while

Suarez took over from Forlan
Welcome to Eastern Cape
Levelled by Lee Chung-Yong
Time for a change of shape

In charge and laying the maps
Sturdy as an English elm
El Maestro Tabarez
Wise stager at the helm

Chance for wonderboy Lodeiro
Godin's return added steel
Blinding winner from Suarez
Ajax goal machine is for real

Neldon Mandela bay stadium
Port Elizabeth a melting pot
Le Dongook almost squared the show
Cleared coolly by Lugano
