Luis Suarez has admitted it would be a big loss for Uruguay if strike partner Edinson Cavani is unable to feature against France in Friday's World Cup quarterfinal.
Cavani scored both goals in the 2-1 round of 16 win over Portugal but was forced off during the second half with a left shin injury and, although initial tests have shown that the problem is not serious, the 31-year-old has struggled to walk normally and has not trained for the past few days.
Suarez pointed out that Uruguay have played without Cavani in the past, although never in a match as important as Friday's showdown for a place in the World Cup semi-finals.
