The Mexican website Mediotiempo, one of the most popular in the country, wrote an opinion editorial on the Uruguayan team's exit from the group stage of the Qatar 2022 World Cup on Sunday.

In it, writer Miguel Angel Arizpe mentioned the assertions of certain Uruguayan football players following the encounter against Ghana. He specifically mentioned the actions of José Mara Gimenez, Fernando Muslera, Edinson Cavani, and Diego Godin.

“It is incredible to see how a team falls so low and is as ordinary as the Uruguayan. Weepers, currents, sore losers, anti FairPlay and everything they want to add to it," said Arizpe

“'They robbed us, FIFA brings it against us; it was very evident that they wanted us to lose', said some players and, above all, fans of that team. Do me the favor! Who the hell is Uruguay before the world for FIFA to orchestrate a campaign to keep them out! Locate yourselves, charrúas, they are not Brazil, Argentina, Germany, France or even England… they are Uruguaaay! ”, he added.

“Players harassing the referees, Giménez hitting a FIFA member from behind, Cavani throwing away the VAR camera, Luis Suárez saying that they are bringing it against them… Don't they remember how they got to the World Cup? Have you already forgotten that they took a legitimate goal from Peru, a marker that scored the Incas? Just as the sensation in this World Cup is being Mbappé, the ridiculous and base and ridiculous has been Uruguay. Postscript How crybaby Uruguayans are!"
