At 31, he hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down. Another to watch will be midfielder Nicolas Loderio who offers creativity to his team and is known for his grit and endeavor.
"We must go to the World Cup with expectations because we have players who are in the important leagues along with other players from the elite teams,” Uruguay’s manager Oscar Washington Tabarez said. “I have the hope that we could be a surprise, although at no time are we going to be believe that we are the favorites or think we are champions."
