Uruguay 12 matches without a striker goal

Uruguay's strikers have gone missing for 12 straight games and the numbers are genuinely alarming. Draws, losses, and not one goal from a forward in any of them. The full run: a 0-0 with Chile, then Laquintana scoring in a 1-0 over the Dominican Republic, Sanabria and Torres combining for a 2-1 against Uzbekistan, another 0-0 with Mexico, De Arrascaeta finding the net in a 1-5 loss to the USA, Valverde scoring in a 1-1 with England, a 0-0 against Algeria, Araújo in a 1-1 with Saudi Arabia, Araújo and Canobbio in a 2-2 with Cape Verde, a 0-1 to Spain, and Araújo again in a 1-3 to Japan. You have to go back to September 4, 2025 for the last time an actual striker scored, and even that 3-0 win over Peru came from Viñas, Aguirre, and De Arrascaeta. Remember when Suárez and Cavani wore this shirt? That feels like another lifetime. Watching this drought drag on is getting hard to stomach.
