Uruguay lost to France and was eliminated from the 2018 World Cup

There were 10 minutes left and some of their players were crying helplessly on the ground, but at the same time they were not doing well on the field. The inaccuracies extinguished the claw and the will disappeared as quickly as the festive atmosphere that was felt in the first minutes of the game by the chants of the tribune .

Without Edinson Cavani, who could not play for a muscular injury, the Celestes were very far from the level they showed in the round of 16, when they eliminated Portugal with two goals from the French PSG striker.

He devoted himself more to the search for personal struggles with the French than to the motivation of his own companions. The Barcelona striker did not shoot a single shot on goal.

Perhaps out of respect for his rival team's friends, with whom he shares Atleti, or perhaps out of pity with Muslera, who at the end of the defeat was one of the most affected.

"We have nothing to blame ourselves for, we are a team, we have all given our best match and preparation, I have only words of thanks with my teammates," said captain Diego Godin, with tears rolled over his cheekbones
