Pereiro gave Uruguay, winners of the tournament in 2018, the lead when he smashed his low left foot shot beyond Uzbekistan goalkeeper Sanjar Kuvvatov.
Stuani doubled the South American nation's advantage 18 minutes later when he chipped the ball over the advancing Kuvvatov after it was deflected into his path by Egor Krimets. Stuani wrapped up the win eight minutes from time when he steered Jonathan Rodriguez's low driven cross home from six yards out.
