If anyone didn't know exactly what's going on these days in the U.S., they could assume it was a large-scale drug prosecution operation or some shooting for the legendary Maimi Vice.
But it was none of the above, as the powerful police forces and specially trained dogs (to identify drugs or explosives) that existed outside Hard Rock Stadium, Miami before the start of the Saudi Arabia - Uruguay race, were there to... check the mission of the Latin American team!
And this is just another link to the chain of shame that concerns the World Cup of football. ..
🚨 ACCUEIL ULTRA-SÉCURISÉ POUR L’URUGUAY AUX ÉTATS-UNIS ! 😳🇺🇾
Chiens détecteurs de drogue et d’explosifs, contrôles renforcés... la Celeste a été accueillie sous haute survey. ..

After the thorough scrutiny of the Uzbeks, the Somali referee's non-entry, the problems with Iranian visas, we now had the... paranoid reception of the police in the Uruguay National mission when she arrived at the stadium for her first match at the World Cup football.
As if they had opposite drug dealers, police officers forced the players and other members of the mission to take all their luggage down to the ground to investigate specially trained detection dogs. Throughout the process, footballers were obliged to stand in line, waiting for police officers to finish their job.
