Qatar FIFA World Cup: When El Loco existed up to his name

 

It is one of the most unforgettable consequences in FIFA World Cup™ history. Sebastian Abreu had the accountability of returning Uruguay to the semi-championships for the first time in four periods. But with the Republic of Ghana also on the border of history, and Africans joined in support of the Black Stars, the vast bulk of a deafening, partisan Soccer City throng was willing El Loco to miss. But while innumerable players have hesitated under such weight. FIFA World Cup 2022 Fans can buy Qatar World Cup Tickets from our website.

And many more still have gone for the clear, 'safe' option of going firm and low to one corner or the other, Abreu took the road less toured.


 

Hearts pumping

With vuvuzelas deafening all around him, the odd Uruguay star won the shoot. Out with the rudest of chips. It was a strange effort, one that left him at the risk of looking foolish. And opposite the ire of a nation – but which was also.

 As his team-mates recognized, typical of the man. We're used to his foolish things - it's not the first time he's ended that.

Said Uruguay’s captain, Diego Lugano. "He's as mad as he is brainy. He studies opponents and custodians. He's courageous and smart."

“Also,” he added in a meeting with FIFA.com, “I’d been watching their custodian and I saw that he was diving before the importance taker struck the ball. Given that a place in the semi-finals was at stake I didn’t think he was likely to attitude still.

 Normally you’ve got so much epinephrine pumping that you aim for one side or the other, but I took it with sureness.”

Indeed, he did, and Abreu’s clear-inclined appraisal of the situation, and correct valuation of Richard Kingson’s meanings, led to the warmest of post-match respects from his coach.

The people who disapprove of him just wouldn’t be brave sufficient to do what he did.” “I wouldn’t say that it was a foolish choice,” said Oscar Tabarez. “In my view, the way he took it presented his class, his fineness.
