Uruguay have produced a glittering array of striking talent over the years, including Luis Suarez, Diego Forlan and Edinson Cavani. However, it's Oscar Míguez, who played for La Celeste during the 1950 and 1954 tournaments, scoring eight times, who tops the nation's World Cup finals scoring charts.
