Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez scored as Uruguay beat Paraguay 3-0 to win the Copa America for a record 15th time.

Suarez scored the opener on 12 minutes and strike partner Diego Forlan gave Uruguay a 2-0 half-time lead.

Forlan, making a record 82nd appearance for La Celeste, added the third in the last minute to register his 31st international goal.

The victory gives Uruguay their first Copa America title since 1995, and one more than Argentina.

"My grandfather won it, my father won it and now I have won it.

"It is a pride for the family.

"Three generations of my family have won this tournament - Forlan will be the last name in history of football.

"It was a complicated game but the team played well. The early goal helped to simplify things," said Forlan.
