President Luis Lacalle Pou of Uruguay shed light on the nation’s soccer spirit during an interview. Despite its small population, Uruguay has achieved remarkable success in the sport, with multiple Olympic and World Cup championships, as well as numerous Copa America titles. President Luis Lacalle Pou attributes this success to the fact that Uruguayan children start playing football from a very young age, often joining top international teams and bringing back exceptional skills and tactics. The players’ strong sense of pride and love for their country, known locally as the “Garra Charrúa” spirit, further fuels their dedication on the field.
