FIFA has suspended four Uruguayan players for incidents at the World Cup. Fernando Muslera and Jose Mar\u00eda Jimenez have been suspended for four games. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Diego Godin and Edinson Cavani were suspended for one game.<\/p>\n
The quartet received a ban after being involved in a heated post-match scene after their victory over Ghana. Uruguay were knocked out of the tournament due to the scoreline, even though he won the match 2-0. <\/p>\n
The South American team needed one more goal in this match to advance to the knockout rounds.<\/p>\n
Uruguay’s players were furious with match referee Daniel Sievert in the closing stages of their game against Ghana. <\/p>\n
They thought Sievert should have given the team multiple penalties during the match. Cavani and Darwin Nunez called for penalties at the last minute but were waved off.<\/p>\n
After the final whistle blew, several Uruguayan players surrounded the referee and shouted angrily. Star striker Luis Suarez even claimed that FIFA was “against Uruguay”.<\/p>\n
Cavani protested further to the referee. The 35-year-old forward called for Sievert to go to jail in a post-World Cup interview. <\/p>\n
‘They should put him in jail,’ Cavani told Spanish outlet Marka<\/em>“But if the referee penalizes me for hitting VAR for taking us out of the World Cup, they have to put him in jail.”<\/p>\n He also admitted that he was concerned about being prosecuted for the incident. I’m worried,” Cavani continued.<\/p>\n \u201cBut these things happen. What happened and why things are the way they are.<\/p>\n
