Luis Suárez’s claim to goalkeeper Muslera after the center that ended with Argentina’s goal: “How easy they make the goal”

Argentina beat Uruguay 1-0 and added his first victory in the Copa América 2021 by Group A. With a superlative performance by Lionel Messi, Scaloni’s team beat Maestro Tabárez’s team thanks to both Guido Rodriguez. The Betis midfielder, who entered as a starter instead of Leandro Paredes, converted the only goal after a center from the Argentine 10 and was one of the complementary figures of the selected team.

In what was the premiere of the Uruguayan national team in the highest national team tournament in South America, there was a particular discussion between Luis Suárez and Fernando Muslera, two historical Celeste after the conquest of the Argentine midfielder.

On the left side of the Argentine attack, Messi slept with the ball to Torreira, took it off him and executed a dangerous cross. “It happens to me here”, the goalkeeper was heard saying before the Betis midfielder’s cross header that hit the post and got into the goal. Seconds later, while the camera stayed with the celebration of the Albiceleste footballers, Suárez claimed his teammates: “You can’t say ‘pass'”.

Quickly, the first to answer was Muslera, who said: “It happens to me”, to which the Atlético Madrid striker asked: “Who said ‘pass’?”. Immediately afterwards, the goalkeeper exclaimed: “I didn’t say anything.” Two seconds later, it was the goalkeeper who took the floor and confirmed to Uruguay’s number 0 that he was the one who had shouted after the Argentine captain’s center. “‘It happens to me’, I said”. To end the verbal crossing, Suárez showed his dissatisfaction with the play. “How easy they make the goal”.

Beyond the early goal for those led by Lionel Scaloni -the goal was 13 minutes into the first half-, which allowed Argentina to dominate the actions in the initial stage, Uruguay’s premiere was not the best.

Precisely, one of those who spoke after the game was Suárez, one of the protagonists of the discussion after the Albiceleste goal. “We have to stay with the good second half and correct the mistakes that are made,” was the first thing he said.

These games are every three days and we have a squad to make a change and take advantage of the next game, “he added in relation to what will be the second presentation of Celeste in the Copa América. This Monday, the rival of the Uruguayans will be Chile, which beat Bolivia and adds four points in Group A, the same as Argentina.

For his part, Tabárez spoke at a press conference and said that the goal “Gave him peace of mind” to Scaloni’s team, but that in addition his selection managed to equalize the actions in the field. “We approach and generate very clear opportunities,” he added in the analysis.

Finally, the Master was clear in the message of how important the next presentations of his team will be for the future of the contest. “There is a lot of ground to cover. Our championship will be played in these three games, where we aspire to qualify”.
