Giorgio Chiellini could make the most level-headed footballer lose it when the Italian used his tricks to stop the opponents who got in their way. Nevertheless, Luis Suarez’s ear-biting will go down in football history as a real low for the Uruguayan superstar. Nor was it the only time Suarez chose his teeth to express his anger and dissatisfaction. Then came the transfer to Barcelona and Suarez “came of age”. The 38-year-old Suarez still couldn’t control himself on Monday night. Fortunately, he kept his mouth shut, but not completely. It now provides quarantine that can extend over two seasons.
The Inter Miami striker couldn’t control himself as the Seattle Sounders beat Messi and Suarez’s superstar team 3-0 in the League Cup final. The Seattle Sounders coach felt Suarez’s wrath with a solid spit in his face.

A video captured Suarez’s “utterance”, the 38-year-old lay flat.
“First of all, I want to congratulate the Seattle Sounders on their triumph in the League Cup. But most importantly, I want to apologize for my behavior at the end of the match. It was a moment of great tension and frustration, where right after the final whistle things happened that shouldn’t have happened – but that doesn’t justify my reaction,” Suarez begins, according to Reuters.

“I feel bad for what happened, and I didn’t want to let the opportunity pass me by to acknowledge it and apologize to everyone who was affected by what I did,” says the 38-year-old winner.
Now the verdict has been handed down for the former Barcelona star. He has received a six-match suspension in the League Cup.
This means that Suarez will not be allowed to participate in the tournament next season, and the suspension could possibly extend over several seasons if Miami does not reach the finals next season. The suspension does not apply to MLS, so Suarez will continue to roll the ball at Inter Miami.
