Uruguay got their World Cup campaign off to a brilliant start after beating Egypt 1-0 in Group A at the Ekaterinburg Arena on Friday.
Gimenez scored a late winner in a tightly contested game.
Galatasaray fans will be pleased to know Fernando Muslera started and kept a clean sheet.
To be fair he was not really tested but did make a few important saves and dealt well with aerial balls.
The star keeper shared a photograph of himself celebrating the victory on his official Instagram account afterward.
Uruguay take on Saudi Arabia next on Wednesday 20 June at 16:00 GMT.
Muslera will make his 99th appearance against the Saudi’s – should he start.
