That looks pretty convincing. Hard to understand why someone would do that with half the world watching.

Italy certainly has a right to be aggrieved.

Even harder to understand that this is his 3rd time biting someone. There has to be a mental issue here.

Pretty significant punishment for Suarez, though still not as much as it might have been.
