A strong and vocal character and every inch the leader of this team, Lugano scored what turned out to be the crucial only goal in the first leg of the tie and Uruguay went through after a 1-1 draw in the second. It was the third time in succession Uruguay had to qualify for the Fifa World Cup through a play-off. "I am happy to qualify, but not for the way we've clinched it," Lugano said after the match. "It is unbelievable that we have to suffer this way." Hard man Lugano (he has been known to pick up the odd rash red), made his name with the great Brazilian side Sao Paulo, where a huge trophy haul included a World Club Championship title in 2005. He now plays for Turkish giants Fenerbahce, where his bravery and commitment has won him a permanent spot in the heart of the fans. Uruguay, whose supporters will be pleased with a strong performance in the group phase, will need all his leadership skills and tough tackling tactics if they are to make it through the group stages of this summer's competition.</blockquote>
