Nunez had one shot (zero on goal) in Monday's 1-1 draw against Saudi Arabia.

Nunez was tasked with leading the line for Uruguay in a favorable matchup, but he struggled to get things going and was removed at half-time. Nunez will try to bounce back Sunday against Cape Verde, as the Al-Hilal forward should remain in the starting lineup.
