FULLBACK Baltazar Amaya scored two tries as Uruguay overturned a half-time deficit to defeat Namibia 36-26 for a bonuspoint win yesterday, sending the African team home from another rugby World Cup without a victory.
The South Americans also scored tries through German Kessler, Santiago Arata and winger Bautista Basso as they claimed a fourth World Cup victory in their history with one final pool match against the All Blacks to come.
Namibia made a great start with a try from Gerswin Mouton in the opening minute and led 20-12 at the break but were unable to sustain their level in the second half and fell to a 26th World Cup defeat going back to their debut in 1999.
