Uruguayans in disbelief: Look what happened to them after coming to the United States

Uruguayan footballers faced unexpected challenges upon arriving in the United States for the World Cup. Due to complications with their flight, they arrived only 24 hours before their opening match against Saudi Arabia. They were met with strict security measures, including sniffer dogs and thorough luggage inspections, which surprised the players.

Urugvajska nogometna reprezentacija otvorit će svoje Svjetsko prvenstvo protiv Saudijske Arabije u ponoć s ponedjeljka na utorak po hrvatskom vremenu u Miamiju .

Uoči te utakmice, Urugvajci su imali brojne logističke izazova. Naime, zbog komplikacija s letom, “Los Charrúas” su u SAD stigli tek oko 24 sata prije početka susreta. Urugvajski mediji navode da je problem nastao jer zrakoplov koji je prvotno bio rezerviran za reprezentaciju nije imao potrebnu dozvolu za ulazak u SAD. Zbog toga je morao biti angažiran drugi avion.

Urugvajci nisu imali prijateljski doček niti prilikom konačnog dolaska u SAD. Društvenim mrežama kruži snimka pregleda urugvajskog autobusa, odnosno kofera i torbi igrača. Angažirani su policajci i psi namijenjeni pronalaskom droge, a urugvajski reprezentativci sve su pratili s nevjericom na licu.

Vidjet ćemo hoće li to sve utjecati na momčad Marcela Bielse koja igra vrlo važnu utakmicu u prvom kolu protiv Saudijaca u skupini u kojoj je Španjolska kao favorit odigrala tek 0-0 sa Zelenortskim Otocima .
