STARS OF QATAR 2022: Suarez, Valverde and stars to watch out for as Uruguay bid for third World Cup title
Uruguay persevered through adversity in the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifying for Qatar 2022 to secure their spot in their fourth straight world championship.
However, there was one significant loss on their choppy trip to Qatar: Oscar Washington Tabarez’s famous 15-year reign as Celeste coach came to an end, and Diego Alonso was brought in to take his place. When the new manager took over, Uruguay quickly secured their spot in the greatest competition by winning four games in a row.
Having put their setbacks behind them, Uruguay will now go in search of their third World Cup Trophy, with expectations as high as ever in a country that always competes with its trademark grit and determination. For a nation with a little over three million inhabitants, Uruguay invariably have a surprising amount of talent at their disposal.
