Our no.21, who has recently returned from a thigh issue, unfortunately had to leave the pitch early during his nation's victory in their final World Cup qualifying game due a calf problem, according to reports.
He was replaced shortly before the half-hour mark by Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez, who went on to open the scoring late on before Real Madrid’s Federico Valverde sealed the win in the 90th minute for Uruguay, who had already booked their place at this winter's tournament.
Fellow Red Facundo Pellistri, currently on loan at Alaves, was unavailable for La Celeste because of suspension.
