World Cup 2022: Luis Suarez blasts FIFA for not allowing him meet his wife and children after Ghana victory

Published on: 05 December 2022

Uruguay striker Luis Suarez has expressed his displeasure after FIFA denied him access to meet his wife and children after the 2-0 win over Ghana at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Ghana skipper Andre Ayew missed a penalty in the 21st minute as his kick was saved by Uruguay goalkeeper Sergio Rochet following a foul on Mohammed Kudus.

Uruguay went on to win the game 2-0 thanks to goals from Giorgio de Arrascaeta in the 26th and 32nd minutes of the game but it was not enough as teams went out of the tournament.

Suarez explained to TeleDoce after the game: "I saw a France player with his children on the substitute bench. So why always (is it a problem) against Uruguay?"

"It seems that we have to have another power at the media level to have access to have my children to allow them come down for a second to greet me, but hey, that's FIFA."
