Tabárez and Uruguay, historic cycle with a bitter end 2:17

(CNN Spanish) -

Uruguay, which was the first world champion in history, will face Portugal, led by Cristiano Ronaldo who wants to end his career with the national team on a high, Ghana and South Korea in Group H of the World Cup in Qatar 2022.

La celeste qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup after beating Peru in the qualifiers.

This after having a difficult start with the departure of Óscar Washington Tabárez, who was his technical director for 15 years, but his last four victories (against Paraguay, Venezuela, Chile and Peru) in this year's South American qualifiers ensured his presence in Qatar.

The Uruguayan team arrives at the World Cup led by Luis Suárez, a veteran and fundamental pillar of the team, joined by other talents such as Fede Valverde, Darwin Núñez and Ronald Araújo.

Here is a review of the first rivals of the Uruguayan team led by Diego Alonso, the dates and times of the Group E matches.

Uruguay's first rivals in Qatar 2022

Uruguay will face South Korea in its first match, which secured its qualification to Qatar 2022 after a historic victory against Iran after 11 years without being able to beat it.

The Korean team led by an elite player like Heung-min Son could be a difficult opponent for the Uruguayans.

South Korea is in position 28 in the FIFA ranking, 15 places below Uruguay.

Then they will play against Portugal, their strongest rival in the group.

The Portuguese team arrives at Qatar 2022 with one of the best squads in its history with Cristiano Ronaldo —thirsty to win with his country after a forgettable season with Manchester United— and with other stars such as Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernández, Rubén Días, Diogo Jota or João Félix.

However, it will be necessary to see the results that he obtains in the world championship after not having had a good performance in the Eurocup. 

Uruguay will close the group stage with a match against Ghana, one of the teams that are lowest in the FIFA ranking (position 61) currently of the teams qualified for Qatar 2022.
