The defender of Uruguay "explodes" against FIFA: They are a bunch of thieves

Jose Maria Gimenez, the defender of Uruguay, exploded against FIFA after the match that the South American team won against Ghana with the score 2-0, but which was not enough to qualify for the 1/8 stage of the World Cup.

"These boys are a bunch of thieves... Yes, yes, shoot me," the Atletico Madrid player addressed the camera. Daniel Siebert, the German match referee, ignored two potential penalty kicks in Ghana's box. He even went to see one in VAR (Amartey's interference with Darwin Nunez), but Siebert did not award the penalty even after seeing it on the monitor. Immediately after the end of the match, the Uruguayan players shouted at the German referee, while Cavani, when leaving the field, threw the VAR monitor on the ground. To put a lid on it, Suarez declared: "FIFA is against Uruguay". Uruguay would need another goal to qualify further, with a better goal difference than South Korea.
