Uruguay star forward Maximiliano Araújo’s game against the United States men’s national team was abruptly cut short after a nasty collision in the box.

The 24-year-old Araújo, who has two goals and an assist already in the Copa America, collided with USMNT defender Timothy Ream and Uruguay teammate Ronald Araújo going for a header on a free kick around the near post around the 23rd minute of a scoreless pool play game on Monday night in Kanas City.
