Maxi Pereira (SL Benfica and URUGUAY)
Uruguay right back Maxi Pereira showed a remarkable lack of discipline against Costa Rica when his country needed him to be most professional, lashing out with a vicious kick in the latter stages of the 3-1 defeat and earning himself a straight red card.
Now suspended for Uruguay’s crunch match against England, Pereira will need to make a big impression against Italy in order to redeem himself.
