Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez says he is "worried" after Edinson Cavani limped out of their 2‑1 win against Portugal with a suspected hamstring injury.

Cavani, 31, scored both goals as Uruguay booked a quarter‑final clash with France next Saturday but left the pitch with 16 minutes remaining.

France and Uruguay will face off in the first FIFA World Cup quarterfinal at 2am this Saturday.

Looking at the two matches, France defeated Argentina 4-3 while Uruguay beat Portugal 2-1.

French youngster 19-year-old Kylian Mbappe was the hero of this match after netting two goals for his side.

Other goals for France were scored through Antoine Griezmann and Benjamin Pavard.

Argentina’s first goal was scored through Angel Di Maria, Gabriel Mercado and Sergio Aguero.

Meanwhile Uruguay’s two goals came from star striker Edinson Cavani while Pepe scored for Portugal.

Tomorrow, Spain will face Russia at 2am while Croatia (Cro-wasia) will face Denmark at 6am.

On Tuesday, Brazil will take on Mexico at 2am while Belgium will face Japan at 6am.

On Wednesday, Sweden will take on Switzerland at 2am while Colombia will face England at 6am.
