Luis Suarez has revealed that he and Barcelona teammate Neymar have a culinary wager riding on their imminent match up, as Brazil face off Uruguay in Recife on Friday evening in South American World Cup qualifying.
The club teammates will face off for their countries, with Suarez representing his country for the first time since the 2014 World Cup after serving a 10 match ban for biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini at that tournament.
At a press conference on Tuesday, Suarez revealed that he and Neymar have made a friendly bet on the outcome, “I have a bet with Neymar. The winner gets a burger. He is a great team-mate and we always make jokes at Barcelona.
“But whoever will win this game will be enjoying himself and he who loses will be hearing it from the other. Above all, we are team-mates and friends.”
Uruguay sit in second place in CONMEBOL qualifying, with Brazil back in 4th having already played tough away games in Chile and Argentina, Ecuador are the surprise pace setters in first place. The top four teams qualify for the World Cup in CONMEBOL qualifying.
