"Man Utd" striker Edinson Cavani will have to rest for some time, performing the FA-imposed punishment for a message on social media. Organization officials considered the athlete's gesture as "racist" and sentenced him to a three-match ban. The Uruguayan footballers' association expressed concern about the fate of their compatriot, assuring that the player is not a racist and that the FA has assessed the situation too narrowly. "FA totally ignored and belittled the multicultural vision of the world, inappropriately applying anti-racist rules to this issue, which we do not question. E. Cavani's expression, which is common in Latin America, was meant for his beloved friend," said the Uruguayans, and their message was also shared by well-known footballers Lucas Torreira and Diego Godin. "
