Yes part or, not all of. Uruguayans are the little guys who always want to prove that they belong. Here is a small country that have won 2 world cups and are sandwiched between two huge countries. Uruguayans will be the first to tell you they're Uruguayan, not those Brazillian and/or Argentinian #######s. In soccer this magnifies it cause Brazil and Argentina are soccer giants and Uruguay were once good but are now going into the wilderness.

So for someone like Suarez, this just make it worse. He wants to be seen as better than Neymar or Messi. Little brother syndrome. Especially with the World Cup in South America this time. Uruguay are desperate to do well. Today's match was life and death for them.
