Barcelona striker Luis Suarez insists Atletico Madrid ace Antoine Griezmann has nothing to do with Uruguayan football.

Suarez had words for Griezmann after the Frenchman appeared to suggest he was a lover of all things Uruguayan.

"He's not Uruguayan, he's French and he scored a goal," Suarez said after yesterday's World Cup elimination.

"He doesn't know what we have to do to succeed in football.

"He will have his customs and his Uruguayan way of speaking, but we feel differently."

Despite his disappointment at going out of the tournament, Suarez was happy with the effort of his team.

"We always do our best," he added.

"You can say that sometimes maybe we can give a little more, but we always give our best.

"You can have a bad or good match, but we have given everything."
