Uruguayan media criticizes Darwin Nunez after poor performance

Uruguayan forward Darwin Nunez faced criticism after his performance in a World Cup qualifier against Argentina. The Liverpool striker struggled during the match, contributing to Uruguay's loss. This season has been disappointing for Nunez, with only seven goals in 40 appearances. Many believe he may be on track for his worst scoring season in Europe. Local media were not impressed with Nunez's showing against Argentina. El Observador rated him just 4 out of 10, noting he had difficulty getting clear chances to score. They pointed out that he left the game in the 71st minute. El Pais acknowledged his hard work defensively but also criticized the lack of support from his teammates. Statistics from the match showed Nunez played for 72 minutes without scoring or assisting. He completed 64% of his passes and created no clear scoring opportunities. Fans have often expressed frustration with his finishing, despite recognizing his strong work ethic. New reports suggest Nunez's future at Liverpool may be uncertain. With some clubs in Europe and Saudi Arabia interested, a summer move is becoming more likely. Liverpool is also moving forward with plans to sign Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez.
