BY Jack Tunney  ·  Wednesday Jul 26, 2023

Uruguay Rugby has a strong future ahead of it if their current crop of U20s players can continue their form into senior rugby.

On Tuesday on a rugby pitch in Nairobi, Kenya, history was made as the Uruguay U20s completed their first-ever victory over a tier one nation in thrilling scenes over Scotland.

It was this drop goal that really cements the level of quality this young side have in their ranks:

Uruguay will play Spain in the final on Sunday, with the winner promoted into World Rugby U20 Championship.

Scotland U20s have won just one Six Nations game in the last three years, which leads to some real concerns regarding a senior Scotland side relying more and more on external talent.
