Futbol Uruguayo 2001


Futbol Uruguayo 2001 is the second Panini album of the Uruguayan football after Copa Coca-Cola 2000. The cover of the album shows the iconic tower "de los homenajes", which is part of the "Estadio Centanario" of Montevideo.  The 2001 Primera Division was contested by 18 clubs, which were first divided in three groups. The best 10 clubs proceeded to the double tournament Apertura and Clausura, whereas the others to the Campeonato Permanencia to determine the clubs to be relegated.

The album follows the tournament division, starting with the 10 clubs playing the Apertura and Clausura and continuing with the other clubs. For both groups there is first a page with the stickers of the home kit followed by the club pages shown in alphabetical order. For each club there is a total of 22 stickers: the team photo composed by four stickers, the club badge (round sticker), the flag (square sticker), and 16 players in action. The badge and flag stickers are numbered with letters. With the collection there are also two extra stickers with the logos of the sponsors (Solana and Tenfield). Overall it is an exhaustive collection, including all players and clubs. However, the quality of the stickers is not the top, as there are no metallic/special stickers and some photos of the players in action are not very sharp.
