Algeria measure itselfhas Uruguay in three days at the Allianz stadium in Turin (Italy). Federico Valverde (Real Madrid) will be there. As for Rodrigo Bentancur (Tottenham Hotspurs), the other Uruguayan star, will not be there. It was an injury that prevented him from taking part in this March training course.
It is a centerpiece of the midfield of the Celeste. Bentancur (28 years old) is an experienced player (73 selections) and talent. Suffering from hamstrings, the former resident of the Juventus Turin was not retained by Marcelo Bielsa. Without him, his compatriots did well on Friday againstEngland by hanging it on stade Wembley (Londres) thanks to a penalty converted in added time by Valverde.
Qualitative alternatives
This is to say that theUruguay has the quality to make up for this package. There are players like Manuel Ugarte (Manchester United), Giorgian de Arrascaeta (CR Flamengo) or even By making Pellistri (teammate ofAhmed Touba au Panathinaikos) which will certainly do the job well. Obviously, for Valverdein great shape with the Real Madrid after a slump, we don’t even need to mention it. He will clearly be the main asset.
We can expect the bloc to equip Greens will have a lot more work compared to the last match against the Guatemala. The opponent is full of quality in their ranks. We talk about the 17e nation of FIFA ranking et semi-finalist from the last America Cup. Afterwards, it is a team which hasn’t won any of its last 3 matches. There is definitely something to play for.
