Five years have passed since the remembered quarterfinal match of the 2015 Copa América between Chile and Uruguay at the National Stadium. Duel that Red won with the goal of Huaso Isla 10 minutes from the end.
But it is not just that fact that game is remembered, there is also the famous finger from Jara to Cavani and Valdivia’s spout to the Uruguayan defender Jorge Fucile.
The celestial defender, who revealed that they always remind him of that move, was referring to that “Magician” lujito.
«Every day they remind me of the Valdivia pipe. Every day I get a message saying ‘but what spout did you eat’ … And what can I do? I have to die of laughter », said the Uruguayan in an interview with the site Fútbol Joven.
Along those same lines, he adds that «Jorge is a great player and the truth is that he was a great barbarian, spectacular. Nothing happens. I have also had to make tunnels ».
Sometimes you do it and sometimes they do it to you. Apart from Jorge it was very good. And he did it to me, so it has more merit, “he said.
Expulsion
Fucile also recalled the expulsion he suffered at the end of that same game, after an ugly attack on Alexis Sánchez and which almost led to a pitched battle.
«With one less came Chile’s goal and the game started there. They won, but I will not tell you that exactly, because with VAR (Gonzalo) Jara I would not have been on the court and I would not have been expelled. But they won well, “he said.
