Uruguay striker, Luis Suarez, has lamented the team's 2-0 loss against Portugal but insisted that his colleagues should concentrate on defeating Ghana in the following game.

Uruguay is on the verge of leaving the FIFA World Cup in 2022 early after two games without a victory.

The all-time leading scorer of goals claimed that Uruguay's loss to Portugal last Monday was really heartbreaking.

According to him, Uruguay must only concentrate on a win against Ghana in the final Group H contest.

“All defeats hurt, especially in a World Cup. Now it's time to be together as a group and not look for more excuses. Winning and qualifying, that's our goal. Trust us that we are going to drop everything,” Luis Suarez said in a post on Instagram.

The striker is expected to be in action for Uruguay when they take on Ghana in the final Group H match of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Uruguay will need to win that game to stand any chance of advancing to the Round of 16 of the tournament ongoing in Qatar.

The opponent, Ghana only needs a draw to secure qualification to Round 16 of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
