Saudi Arabia's goalkeeper Mohammed Al-Owais clears the ball next to Uruguay's forward Darwin Nunez during the 2026 World Cup Group H football the Miami Stadium in Miami Gardens on June 15, 2026.
Uruguay dominated but had to settle for a 1-1 draw against Saudi Arabia in the sweltering heat of Miami on Monday to leave an intriguing Group H wide open.
The stalemate came hours after one of the biggest shocks in World Cup history when European champions Spain were held 0-0 by debutants Cape Verde in the same group.
After the first round of games in the pool all four teams have one point.
Defender Abdulelah al-Amri gave the Saudis a surprise lead near the end of the first half only for Uruguay's second-half pressure to pay off with 10 minutes left through Maxi Araujo.
