The FIFA Virus attacks Atlético for Uruguay: Suárez and Giménez

During the weeks of hiatus, Simeone lives with one eye here, the Cerro, and the other perched in several different places, wherever their internationals play. For fear of the FIFA Virus, which can attack from any flank. And last night he did. From Uruguay. For the headache of the Argentine coach. And it is that in the match that faced the Uruguayan team with Colombia, Atlético had two casualties: that of Luis Suárez and José María Giménez. Both withdrew from the encounter with problems and are awaiting tests and evolution.

Luis Suárez retired to rest with a blow to the knee. The forward collided with Yerry Mina in a brutal way and was left lying on the ground with a leg injury. After the break he did not return to the game in which he had had three scoring chances. Giménez, who was making a brutal start to the season, the most fit central of the four that Cholo has, while, he was lying on the ground in minute 60 ', without a blow or intervention from anyone. He only lay down when he felt that bite that hurts so much: that of a muscular discomfort. Both are awaiting the tests carried out to know the exact extent of their ailments. Simeone too.

Problems against Liverpool

Because, although in their favor is that Atlético will not compete this weekend for the break or the next, the match against Granada postponed by the international Conmebol, on October 19 they play against Liverpool in the match corresponding to the 3rd day of the group stage of the Champions League, a game that Savic cannot play, due to suspension, and that, without Giménez, he would leave Simeone with only two pure centrals, Felipe and Hermoso. Up, down to Suárez, has more resources in its squad (Griezmann, Correa, Lemar, João Félix, Cunha) but the presence of the Uruguayan always imposes, it is the goal.
