Following Uruguay's semi-final defeat to Colombia at this summer’s Copa America, Nunez and several La Celeste stars flocked into the stands to protect their families from Colombian hooligans. A fight broke out in the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte and police had to step in to bring the brawl to an end.


Nunez was one of the key players in the brawl, and earlier this week CONMEBOL announced punishments for the players with the Liverpool star banned for five games with Marcelo Bielsa's side. Suarez is no stranger to controversy and lengthy bans, and the Uruguayan legend has offered advice to Nunez as he serves his suspension.


Speaking to the media, Suarez said: "I already spoke with Darwin when he was sanctioned in England. Sometimes people enjoy it more when you are on the ground and fall, but people feel more pain when you get back up.


"And that is what he has to do: get up and continue to show the kind of player he is. That is where you see the great players and the mental strength he has to have to show those people that they like to see him on the ground."


Suarez announced his retirement from the international game earlier this week, and Nunez will miss out on the former Barcelona star's final Uruguay match. Suarez also talked about the same as he said: “It is not an easy moment that they must be going through, these are complicated moments. I have spoken with some of them and unfortunately, they cannot be here, for something so important for me.


"I've been with all of them for many years in the national team and I would have liked them to be here on Friday, but that's football and they've sent me their messages, and they know that it's a difficult time for me to make that decision.”
