Uruguay head coach Óscar Tabárez is set to make an incredible fourth appearance at a World Cup. On the back of managerial adventures at Italia 1990, South Africa 2010 and Brazil 2014, the 71-year-old will once again take charge of the South Americans at Russia 2018 - making him the most experienced coach at the tournament.
Tabárez's World Cup highlight to date was at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, when the team returned home with a creditable 4th place in the bag.
