Edinson Cavani: "Uruguay maintains the essence that modern football takes away from you"

Diego Torres

Three decades of work in the wild environment that goes from soccer to the pampas of the eastern side of Paraná have carved the body of a decathlete that Edinson Cavani (Salto, Uruguay; 35 years old) wears when he gets out of his truck in Paterna wearing sneakers of trekking.

He seems ready for any agricultural eventuality as he pauses and sits down to chat about a subject as familiar to him as his little buckfoot.

At the gates of its fourth World Cup, few footballers better represent the spirit of a country proud of having been the first champion.

Fede Valverde, the shy boy with a flute voice who wanted to be Kroos

Lorenzo Calonge

In the case of Fede Valverde (Montevideo, Uruguay, 24 years old), the anecdote has ended up becoming history.

The change of his nickname, from Pajarito to Halcón, symbolizes his leap in football in the last six months: from Madrid's permanent waiting room, to the main protagonist;

from accidental scorer to surprising striker.

The shy boy with a flute voice who began to stand out in Peñarol has already conquered Madrid and now the world challenge of Qatar awaits him, the country where falcons are the national bird.

(This Thursday, Uruguay debuts against South Korea; 2:00 p.m., Movistar).

Read here the complete news of Lorenzo Calonge.

South Korea at the World Cup

The challenge for South Korea is to get closer to that fourth position that they reached in their World Cup, shared with the Japanese, in 2002. In seven of their nine participations they did not pass the group stage.

Not only that, but they've only won six of their 34 games in this tournament, with 34 goals for and 70 against.
