On June 21, Estadio Centenario (Montevideo) will host a friendly international match, in which Uruguay will compete with Cuba. The battle will start at 01:30 CET.

Uruguay

The team with considerable troubles, but still qualified for the previous World Cup. To accomplish this task, the local management even decided to break off the relations with Óscar Tabárez, who was the record holder for the time of continuous work at the head of the national team at that moment. Being already under the rule of Alonso, the ex-footballer (and a former ward of a veteran coaching department), “Los Charrúas” were able to get enough points to go to the World Cup. To be honest, one cannot say that they failed in Qatar, taking 4 points there – still, a draw in the battle against the Koreans and even a victory in the match with Ghana were not enough to reach the play-offs, which led to one more resignation. A new coach has appeared just now, in the summer – it has become Marcelo Bielsa, an experienced specialist, albeit an eccentric one. Deciding not to disturb the veterans led by Luis Suarez, Argentina started with a friendly game against Nicaragua, where it took a 4-1 victory.

Cuba

The national team is not quoted highly even by the standards of its region, and it is one of the weakest, in terms of football. It goes without saying that, if we speak about the history, there is participation in the World Cup, and even reaching the quarter-finals there, but that was in 1938, when there was no qualification. Having made the debut at the Gold Cup in 1971, “the Caribbean Lions” immediately achieved the 4th place there – still, they had only become the participants in the draw twice until the end of the century. More or less constantly, the team played in the higher mentioned tournament only in two previous decades, and then missed two of three previous draws. Moreover, it lost all 3 matches with a total score of 0-17 in 2019. Nowadays, however, there is reason for optimism: speaking about the ending of the Nations League in winter, the team took 5 victories in 6 matches and won the group. Still, it is reasonable to mention the extremely weak, even for the CONCACAF, opponents. Chile defeated the team with a 3-0 score in the test match of the previous week.
