He was silent: this was the departure of Washington Tabárez after a meeting on his future | VIDEO

In complete silence, Óscar Washington Tabárez withdrew from the meeting he held with his technical command with authorities from the Uruguayan Football Association, where his continuity in command of the Uruguayan team was discussed.

The experienced Uruguayan strategist and his assistants left the ‘Celeste Complex’ after the summit without making statements to the press.

The AUF Executive Committee will inform Tabárez and company in the next few hours if they will continue to lead the eastern team.

The president of the Uruguayan Football Association, Ignacio Alonso, confirmed that this Sunday it will be clarified whether or not there will be a new technical command. “Tomorrow there is a decision”, He declared before the media.

The Uruguayan soccer team showed its worst face in the last triple date of the Qualifiers and left the direct qualification zone to Qatar 2022 to get into the play-offs.

After adding a draw with Colombia and being beaten in two games with the leaders Brazil and Argentina, La Celeste was in fifth place in the table with 16 points (with a negative balance of goals, -3), the same as Colombia (0) and three more than Chile.

Undoubtedly, those led by Óscar Washington Tabárez do not occupy the most comfortable place at this time after 12 games played and when there are only six left ahead.

However, they are clear that on the triple date that ended this Thursday they got rid of two of the most difficult encounters: Argentina and Brazil as visitors.

Playing there, since the current qualification system was implemented prior to the 1998 World Cup in France, Celeste played 12 games in which they only won four of 36 possible points. This time he also conceded seven goals against in 180 minutes.

Before those matches, Uruguay started the triple matchday by facing Colombia in Montevideo.
