i am all for banning Nunez from international games, I just don't give a sh1t about Uruguay. if someone offers £70m, I would sell Diaz otherwise keep. i am not worried about goals.
We scored plenty of goals last season but then gave away the lead all too often. Not sure why we playing a high line when we are ahead. I would like us to close shop when we are ahead

Everyone is blaming the organizers. I lived in Charlotte for a couple of years and have watched multiple games in that stadium. Charlotte is a really cool underrated town. I have always enjoyed my experience in that stadium. Always felt safe, felt things were well organized. So surprised this happened.
There weren’t much security, that was the problem.
Was thinking that maybe they underestimated what could happen? Given that this doesnt happen much in the national sports?
During the games I watched, at the end of the game, I saw a lot of security outside, directing us to the various parking lots and helping manage the traffic. Maybe a majority of them were all outside helping control the crowd?
So who attacked (allegedly) the players' families ? I'm confused.
The VIPs (colombian mafia) or the colombian fans ?

He’s such an annoying twat.
if you look at the video, there's at least 10-12 officers in there in the middle.
Americans don't have that tribal enmity between sets of supporters though ... and nothing in any sport even close to the level of South Americans!
How dare you post anything which contravenes Localny's encyclopaedic knowledge of how events unfolded!
if you look at the video I sent you'll see coppers in there holding Darwin Burros back. I counted at least 5 or 6 in the frame.
Thank you! Sheesh!
Who gives a shit who started it?
You've got a high stakes match and zero of the standard precautions taken.

There are no immediate suspensions, so these players can participate in the match against Canada on Saturday. Any penalties will apply to the 2026 Qualifiers, beginning in September when Uruguay faces Paraguay at home and then visits Venezuela.

Sounds like it only applies to International football - amazing escape if true!
On a related note, can Trent and Gomez also twat someone on international duty?
WIth our luck...
Núñez is facing the prospect of a suspension issued by organisers CONMEBOL, the South American Confederation, which could extend to club football if world governing body FIFA decides to intervene should CONMEBOL apply any sanction.
Lucky you say?
Ya if everyone was safe it’s a little different but I’d be diving in first and asking questions later if there was even a small chance one of my own were in trouble.
I find it really hard to be angry here, regardless of his intelligence or footballing ability.
Ugly scenes regardless.
Fair, I guess my initial response is one of sympathy unless the evidence clearer shows the opposite vs how many have reacted.
We should know our Darwin by now, he is always the most passionate of all and always in the midst of all chaos. One thing for sure he never went in that crowd to fight anybody but rather to push the Colombian fans further away from the families. Expect him to be in the front line fighting for his cause, and here he was stopping the fans from advancing towards the pitch. He did his duties in a situation that had potential to escalate and harm his people. Yes he grabbed that chair not to hurt anyone, for thats not in him, he simply raised it up to scare the mob away. He had all the opportunity to launch it forward but he didn't and it was not because he was restrained. Yes he punched a fan but not with intent to harm, more to back him off, he got punched as well, it happens all the time in a situation like that.
To suggest that's the end of him, he will get a hefty ban, it's way too chaotic to go that far. I think the club should stand tight behind him. If we want to replace him with another striker, let's do that but not because of this fracas.
