Liverpool England striker Darwin Nunez is in training with his national team ahead of Uruguay's upcoming matches against Iran and Canada on 23 and 27 September respectively. Coach Diego Alonso has put all his faith in him, saying that he is now the future of "La Celeste's" attack ahead of the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
Recently in Vienna, Austria, the selected players were surprised by the Uruguay staff at the hotel where before breakfast they were given mate thermoses with the face of the new mascot of the team "Botija", who swept the votes with 58.2% (101,547) on the official website of the Uruguayan Football Association (AUF).

Through the Hashtag #NuestraMascota, Botija, who is a sky-blue thermos, competed with Tranque (Creole and Charrúa horse), Garrancho (Uruguayan carancho), Zo Rou (native grey fox) and Marguy (native yaguatirica or margay), thus being the successor of iconic mascots such as "Capi", "Pibe or Pato Celeste". This mascot will accompany the Uruguayan national teams in official competitions, starting with the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
Darwin Núñez posed for the AUF's social networks along with his teammates such as Ronald Araujo, Lucas Torreira, Facundo Pellistri, Diego Rossi, Federico Valverde, etc, where in addition to uploading a storie, the squad was recorded drinking mate in their new thermoses, which many embraced the container and joked, reminding them a bit of their homeland, Uruguay.
