2018 FIFA WC: Luis Suarez injured in Uruguay training

 

XtraTime Web desk:  Uruguay training session was not attended by PSG forward Edinson Cavani and there were more concerns when Luis Suarez got a knock.




Barcelona star Suarez was forced to limp to the sidelines when he faced apparent discomfort in his right leg during practice at the team base in Nizhny Novgorod.

Suarez did manage to resume training though the incident will have caused a few concerns for head coach Oscar Tabarez, whose side take on France in the World Cup quarter-finals on Friday.




On the other hand Cavani sustained a hamstring injury during the 2-1 last-16 win over Portugal and, although he completed gym work, Scans carried out on Monday showed Cavani does not have a muscle tear.Yet, the Paris Saint-Germain forward was the only player in the 23-man squad not to take part in Tuesday’s outdoor session at Sports Centre Borsky and his chances of starting the match against France at Nizhny Novgorod Stadium remain in doubt.
