Logistic problems for Uruguay before their debut in the World Cup

Uruguay is affected by logistical problems on the eve of their debut in the World Cup against Saudi Arabia. According to Uruguayan media, FIFA did not complete a necessary procedure for the charter carrying Marcelo Bielsa's team to take off from Mexico to the United States, causing a delay of at least three hours in departure. This situation has also led to the cancellation of press conferences scheduled by Marcelo Bielsa and José María Giménez. The Uruguayan federation has clarified that the responsibility lies with FIFA, the entity in charge of carrying out the procedure, and not with the AUF.
