Suarez double leaves England facing World Cup exit
Play
Luis Suarez scored twice to give Uruguay victory over England in Group D, all but knocking out Roy Hodgson's team.
The Liverpool striker headed Uruguay in front on 39 minutes from an Edinson Cavani cross, losing Phil Jagielka at the back post to head past Joe Hart.
Wayne Rooney, who had hit the bar from a Steven Gerrard free-kick before Uruguay scored, equalised in the second half turning in Glen Johnson's cross.
But Suarez got the winner running on to a inadvertent flick from Steven Gerrard to fire past Hart.
The win means Uruguay join Costa Rica and Italy, who play on Friday in Recife, on three points in Group D.
A disconsolate Hodgson said: "Suarez took his chances and he left us with very little chance of going through. To be sure of continuing in the World Cup we needed a result today and we did not get it.
"We need Italy to win both their games and then for us to score the right amount of goals in our last game.
"I thought we controlled Suarez well and kept him very quiet. But he did well to get away at the back post for the first goal and then it was an unfortunate flick from Gerrard that leads to the second goal."
Suarez almost opened the scoring from a corner forcing Hart to save at his near post in what was Uruguay's first chance.
Rooney had England's first opportunity when Diego Godin was booked for a deliberate hand ball on the edge of the area and the Manchester United striker sent the free-kick just past Fernando Muslera's left-hand upright.
Raheem Sterling fouled Alvaro Pereira and Suarez went close again with the free-kick. He then drilled a clever corner to the feet of Edinson Cavani but the Paris Saint-Germain striker failed to keep his shot down.
On 31 minutes England so nearly broke the deadlock when Martin Caceres fouled Danny Welbeck and Rooney headed Gerrard's free-kick onto the bar from close range.
They paid for the miss because on 39 minutes Uruguay took the lead.
Lodeiro started the move releasing Cavani who floated a cross the back post where Suarez pulled away from Jagielka to loop a header back over Hart.
The cross from Cavani, watched by PSG team-mate Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the crowd, had been perfect and Suarez had justified his selection just a month after surgery on his left knee.
There was almost an immediate response but Muslera got down at his near post to save from Welbeck as England poured forward forcing four quick corners.
At the start of the second half Suarez again tried to score direct from a corner with Hart desperately scrambling the ball off of his line.
Suarez then shot wide and Hart saved from Cavani as Uruguay looked for the second goal.
England were not finished though and the equaliser came on 75 minutes through Rooney. Liverpool pair Glen Johnson and Sturridge combined down the right with the full-back driving into the area and crossing for Rooney to score from inside the six-yard box.
But Suarez struck again with five minutes left to get the dramatic winner. Muslera's long punt forward was flicked on by Cavani and Suarez out-paced Cahill before shooting past Hart.
Uruguay coach Tabarez said: "As a film script it could not have been written any better by a Uruguayan. The joy will not last long because the job is not finished; now we have to focus on Italy.
"There is a lot of affection for Suarez in this squad. They love him because he is a good person and there is also huge admiration for him as a player."
