Arsenal and Chile star Alexis Sanchez has been accused of being “mentally weak” by Uruguay's Jorge Fucile.
The defender's late tackle on Sanchez during his nation's Copa
America quarter-final defeat to Chile saw him sent off for a second
bookable offence.
Edinson Cavani also saw red after lashing out at Gonzalo Jara in a
separate incident, but Fucile is still angered by Sanchez's behaviour
during the game.
He said: "I touched the ball first, any other forward would have
jumped in that moment... It seems that this guy is mentally weak.
"I was running and I couldn't stop myself, so I kicked him. When the match was 0-0, this guy was missing in action.
"We talked during the match, but what happens on the pitch, stays on
the pitch. I don't know what you call this kind of person. I can only
say that his legs were shaking..."
"The worst part was in a moment when he was near my sector and he
said: 'Mr. Ref, he's kicking me, he's kicking me'. The official
responded him: 'You are doing your work, they're doing theirs.'"
