Olivera plays 90 minutes as a centre-back in Uruguay's 4-1 win over South Korea
The Napoli full-back was fielded alongside Araujo in the middle of defence in Seoul, marking his 40th cap in the process.
Mathías Olivera played all 90 minutes as Uruguay beat South Korea 4-1 in a friendly in Seoul, but not in his usual role: the Napoli full-back was deployed as a centre-back, alongside Araujo.
Diego Forlán's Uruguay bounced back from a defeat suffered three days earlier in Japan. Darwin Núñez scored twice, with De Arrascaeta and Varela also on target, as the South Americans ran up their four goals. South Korea pulled one back through Lee Kang-In in the second half.

The night in Seoul was also a personal landmark for Olivera: the game against South Korea was his 40th cap for Uruguay.
The Napoli full-back now returns to Castel Volturno (the training ground) with the rest of the club's internationals ahead of the resumption of the league. Napoli, ninth after a draw in Florence, host Frosinone at the Maradona on Saturday 10 October.
