FIFA Football World Cup 2018 Quarter Final: Uruguay's steely defence against France's attacking football
Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani has been ruled out of the World Cup quarter-final tie against France in Nizhny Novgorod on Friday, after losing his battle to recover from injury. 

Cavani, who has been replaced by Christian Stuani, was listed as "injured" on the official FIFA team sheets after picking a calf muscle strain in the 2-1 win over Portugal in the last 16. 

The Nizhny Novgorod Stadium will play host to the mouth-watering contest which is being touted as a clash between Uruguay's steely defence against France's free-flowing attacking football. 

Both teams are unbeaten heading into the match of former world champions. While Uruguay has won all their games and has conceded just the one goal so far, France knocked out Argentina in a spectacular Round of 16 clashes. 

The latest of Uruguay's three meetings with France at a FIFA World Cup took place at South Africa 2010 when the sides played out a goalless draw in Cape Town on June 11 that year. 

Antoine Griezmann and Lucas Hernandez face off with Atletico Madrid team-mates Diego Godin and Jose Gimenez. (Live Score: Uruguay vs France)
