In an unprecedented move, FIFA barred Luis Suarez from nine games and four months playing football completely because of a biting incident which occurred during the Uruguay-Italy game last Tuesday. The score was knotted at 0-0 when Suarez randomly bit Italy’s defender Giorgio Chiellini on the shoulder for which he justifiably received an elbow in a face from the bitten man.
Suarez was fined 100,000 Swiss francs (around $112,000) and he will also miss Liverpool games until the end of October. The only way for him to play sooner is to switch clubs during summer transfer window.
This is the third time he has bitten somebody during a football game and we suspect other players (and ordinary people) will start coming out of the woods showing their bite marks and blaming Suarez too. On the positive side, this has been a tremendous free publicity for Luis Suarez as he just became a household name.
Funnily enough, a Norway gambling website posted a prop bet before the World Cup with 175-to-1 odds that Luis Suarez would bite someone during the tournament and 167 people have cashed in.
Here is the video of Suarez’s last bite:
