Reporter Park Sang-hyun = Korea and Uruguay plan to have a return match four months after last year’s FIFA World Cup match in Qatar.
Uruguayan sports journalist Federico Buisan announced on his Twitter on the 28th (Korean time) that the Uruguayan national soccer team will play an exhibition match in Korea and Japan in March.
According to the plan reported by Buisan on Twitter, Uruguay will play a warm-up match against Korea in Seoul on March 21st, followed by an A match against Japan in Tokyo on the 28th.
If the plan is successful, the return match will be held four months after the first FIFA World Cup Group H match held at Al Rayyan Education City Stadium in Qatar on November 25 last year. At the time, Korea played an equal match against Uruguay, and won the victory point after a goalless draw. The draw against Uruguay served as a stepping stone for Korea to advance to the round of 16 with a tie with Uruguay with 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss, 2nd in the group, ahead of them on points.
However, even if a return match takes place, it is expected that Uruguay will not be able to play an evaluation match with the best power.
FIFA imposed discipline on four Uruguayan players who protested against the referee after the final World Cup Group H match with Ghana. 먹튀검증
As a result of this punishment, Jose Jimenez and Fernando Muslera will not be able to play in 4 A-matches, and Diego Godin and Edinson Cavani will also be banned from playing in 1 A-match. Because the Korean War takes place first, Godin, Cavani, Jimenez, and Muslera cannot participate in the return match.
Godin served as the captain of the Uruguay national team at the Qatar World Cup and was the key to defending well against Korea’s attacks, and Jiménez also participated in the Korean match. Cavani played as a substitute in place of Luis Suarez in the 19th minute of the second half in the match against Korea. Goalkeeper Muslera did not play.
