I'm not downvoting because I agree that this was a bigger upset. But it wasn't a miracle. Uruguay has been working extremely well. It is the best case example of World Rugby and Agustín Pichot plans for Tier 2/3 nations.

They have a nice stadium they manage, a high performance center, players centrally contracted and not reliant on foreign clubs (OK, some have gone to MLR but waiting for South American franchise league to start), a packed international calendar... Of course World Rugby has supported this financially but because URU proved to be a reliable and trustworthy partner, something unfortunately very few non-Tier 1 unions are.

I have found infuriating how some media takes have been that Uruguay's win proves World Rugby doesn't give enough support to Pacific Islands. Come on, Uruguay is what their bottom performance would be if their governance was half as good as theirs.

I know not so many are fluent in Spanish, but there is an amazing book on URU efforts from 2010 til now by Ignacio Chans that is well worth the money and explains for example how Uruguay chairmen instead of celebrating 2015 RWC presence and make the most out of hotels and catering, they decided to embbed themselves in Argentina's delegation so to knit future ties.

There is a book called: "El Clásico" written by Richard Fitzpatrick. I picked that book up and it's some really interesting stuff about Barcelona and Real Madrids rivalry. http://www.amazon.com/El-Clasico-Barcelona-Footballs-Greatest/dp/1408158809
