CONMEBOL hit the Uruguayan national team hard. Last month, in the "Copa America" tournament, Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani, who suffered provocations from Chilean Gonzalo Jara and was scandalously expelled from the field, received a two-match disqualification. This means that the Paris Saint-Germain player will not be able to represent his country in the 2018 World Cup qualifying matches against Bolivia and Colombia. The matches will be played in October. Uruguay's troubles did not end there - they will also be without coach Oscar Tabarez for three matches. During the match against Chile, the football specialist lost his nerves and was sent to the stands. These are significant losses for the Uruguayans, who still cannot count on striker Luis Suarez, who is also disqualified due to biting.
