Uruguay is still hoping

Already one major star was out from the tournament (Neymar Jr.) and yesterday night his teammate feared all that he will be missing as well. Yesterday's win for Barcelona in the Spanish cup was marred by the La Liga's first scorer. However all is not lost for as the doctors will do everything in their power to make Luis Suarez fit for participating in next month's Copa America Centenario. Almost two weeks before the start the striker gave all a scare when he injured himself in the fifty-seventh minute at the Copa del Rey final against Sevilla. After a full stretching as he was trying to control the ball, Suarez suffered a hamstring injury. 'The medical tests carried out this morning have confirmed that Luis Suarez has an injury in the semimembranosus of his right leg' Barcelona statement said today.
The 29 year old was in tears after the win as it was first feared that he will be in doubt for Uruguay's first game with Mexico on 06 June (CET). We wish him a speedy recovery as it would be a real shame if the Pichici winner is not taking part in this anniversary competition.
