On July 11, Uruguay lost 0-1 to Colombia in the Copa América semi-final, unfortunately failing to advance to the final. After the game, 37-year-old veteran Suárez gave an interview, talking about his feelings about the game.
Suárez said: “I think we were the better team in some aspects of the game, we created scoring opportunities, but we couldn’t convert them into goals, and in games of this level, you pay a heavy price for that.”
In addition, Suárez also talked about the serious injury situation in the team: “Bentancour is injured, and before that we had already lost Araujo, and Oliviera, who was substituted at halftime, also felt unwell.”
“It’s a real shame, because Bentancour was in great form, losing a top player like him is a big blow to us. But we also tried to cope in the best way possible, we got a lot of chances in the second half with a man advantage, but we were never able to equalize.”
