Luis Suarez hit back at Andreas Pereira after Uruguay beat Brazil in the quarter final of the Copa America on Saturday evening.

Uruguay, who were reduced to 10 men against Brazil after Nahitan Nandez was sent off, will now play Colombia, who beat Panama 5-0 earlier on Saturday, in the Copa America semi final on Wednesday.

Suarez, meanwhile, took exception to the comments made by Pereira before their quarter-final tie after the Fulham midfielder claimed that Brazil had a far superior side to Uruguay.

When asked about Pereira’s verdict after Uruguay knocked Brazil out of the tournament, Suarez said: ‘We have the best midfielders in the world, top-level players.

‘To talk about Uruguay, you have to have a little more respect, know the history of Uruguay.
