Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani was dismissed from the World Cup quarterfinal match against France in Nizhny Novgorod on Friday, after losing his battle to recover from an injury. Cavani, who was replaced by Christian Stuani, was ranked "wounded" on the official sheets of the FIFA team after picking a calf muscle in the 2-1 win over Portugal in the last 16 minutes. The Nizhny Novgorod stadium will host an enticing contest that is touted as a clash between Uruguay's defense against offensive football from France. Both teams are undefeated on the eve of the former world champions game. While Uruguay won all of its matches and conceded only one goal, France eliminated Argentina in a spectacular 16-match series. The last of Uruguay's three meetings with France at a FIFA World Cup was held in South Africa in 2010, when both teams drew 0 -0 in Cape Town on June 11 of the same year. Antoine Griezmann and Lucas Hernandez face the teammates of Atletico Madrid Diego Godin and Jose Gimenez. (Live Score: Uruguay vs France)

– FIFA World Cup ™ (@FIFAWorldCup) July 6, 2018 [19659010] 18:10 IST: TRIVIA! France is undefeated in nine World Cup matches against the South American opposition, since she was beaten 2-1 by Argentina in 1978.
17:50 IST: Hello and welcome to the first quarterfinals Uruguay and France come directly from the Nizhny Novgorod stadium.
While Uruguay does not care about attacker Cavani, it must be remembered that La Celeste's progress in Russia is based as much on their defense as on their attack. While France puts its hopes on Mbappe, it is unlikely that the teenager superstar has met a defense like that of Uruguay. Led by captain Diego Godin, including José Gimenez, Martin Caceres and Diego Laxalt, as well as goalkeeper Fernando Muslera, Uruguayan defenders have the best result of the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
