“I am happy that Uruguay advanced to the Round of 16, the third World Cup in a row. It is a right [you get] for all the hard work… As for our potential Round of 16 opponents, it does not matter who we play against. This is the World Cup, all [the teams] are strong… It will be 11 players against 11 players, but I am proud that we have made it this far to the Round of 16,” Suarez, who netted the game’s only goal- his first of the tournament – for his South American side, told journalists. Uruguay will take on hosts Russia in their last group game on 25 June in Samara.
