Lokomotiv Moscow Overview

Uruguay’s 2026 World Cup campaign has been hit by a significant logistical setback after multiple flight delays left Marcelo Bielsa’s squad temporarily stranded in Mexico. The La Celeste party suffered a cancellation and further hold-ups due to paperwork issues just 24 hours before their opening match against Saudi Arabia.

For a coach who's worked in professional football for nearly 40 years, Marcelo Bielsa hasn't won many trophies at the highest level. Pep Guardiola says that doesn't matter, though. "To be loved is this biggest title, bigger than the Champions League or Premier League or whatever," the Catalan once argued. "To be loved is the most important thing, and I think Marcelo has that more than any other manager in the world."
