Forlan continues family tradition

Uruguay striker Diego Forlan believes his name is now enshrined in South American football folklore. Forlan struck twice, after Luis Suarez's early opener, as Uruguay sealed a record 15th title with a 3-0 win over Paraguay in the Buenos Aries final.

For Forlan, it was an emotional triumph as he followed his father and grand-father into the record books as a Copa America winner. Forlán was born into a family of footballers, his father Pablo having played for São Paulo (1970–1975) and Uruguay in the 1966 and 1974 World Cups and his grandfather, Juan Carlos Corazo, for Independiente in Argentina.
