Uruguay was eliminated from the World Cup despite a 2-0 win over Ghana on Friday.
Uruguay's Luis Suarez, 2nd from left, cries after the World Cup group H soccer match between Ghana and Uruguay, at the Al Janoub Stadium in Al Wakrah, Qatar, Friday, Dec. 2, 2022. Luis Suarez couldn't watch as his Uruguay team slid toward a painful World Cup exit. He put his hands in front of his eyes, then pulled his shirt over his head. When his face emerged again, there were tears.
When Suarez left in the 66th minute of the game, Uruguay was in a position to advance to the knockout stage for a fourth straight World Cup. He had played key roles in both Uruguay goals by Giorgian De Arrascaeta, which came after Ghana captain Andre Ayew missed a 21st-minute penalty. The realization that it might be heading that way came for Suarez when a screen at the stadium flashed up news of South Korea's late goal against Portugal. Before that, Suarez was smiling in the dugout.
Suarez was responsible for Ghana's World Cup elimination in the quarterfinals 12 years ago. Then, his deliberate handball on the goal line denied Ghana a certain goal at the very end of extra time.
