Star Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani of Uruguay will suffer the humiliation of being eliminated from the World Cup with a whimper, but head coach Diego Alonso is facing criticism at home. Since Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are expected to be playing in their final World Cup, Uruguay’s two seasoned players have mostly gone unnoticed. Both Suarez and Cavani, both 35, have stated that this World Cup will be their last. After a dull 0-0 draw with South Korea and a 2-0 loss to Portugal, Friday’s matchup with Ghana in Group H may be their last appearance on the grandest stage.
