Forlan taking Uruguay's dream run in his stride

PORT ELIZABETH, South Africa - Uruguay may be enjoying their best World Cup campaign in 40 years, yet Diego Forlan insisted he and his teammates were taking it all in their stride.

In-form Forlan set up Luis Suarez for the first goal of his double in Uruguay's 2-1 second-round defeat of South Korea here on Saturday to continue the former Manchester United player's stellar year and seal Uruguay's first World Cup quarterfinal appearance since 1970.

He scored a double in Atletico Madrid's Europa League final win and has also hit the back of the net twice for his country in South Africa.
