After the final whistle, players on the bench attacked the referee, who decided not to award penalties for tackles against Darwin Nunez in the first half and Cavani in the last minutes of the match. After that, Luis Suarez stated that FIFA was “against Uruguay”.
FIFA has also filed a case against the Uruguayan Football Association (AUF) in connection with possible violations of the rules of fair play (fair play).
“Separate legal proceedings have been opened against Uruguayan players Jimenez, Cavani, Muslera and Godin,” FIFA said in a statement.
The AUF has 10 days to respond to FIFA, AUF Vice President Gaston Tildy told the Uruguayan newspaper Ovacion.
