Uruguay arrived in Cape Town for its opening World Cup match after a delay caused by an airplane problems Thursday.
Spokesman Matias Faral said the team touched down in time for its scheduled training at Cape Town's Green Point Stadium.
Earlier, star striker Diego Forlan said a problem with the plane had kept the team from flying and tweeted desperately: ``Is there no other plane available?''
Later, he tweeted: ``We've arrived in Cape Town!''
