Suarez apologizes for biting opponent in game
Luis Suarez has apologized for his "inexcusable" behavior after biting Chelsea�s Branislav Ivanovic.
LIVERPOOL (AP) - Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has apologized for his "inexcusable" behavior after biting Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic during a 2-2 draw at Anfield on Sunday.
Suarez netted a last-gasp equalizer to secure a point for Liverpool but his performance was overshadowed by a previous incident where he clearly dug his teeth into Ivanovic s arm in the Chelsea area, shortly after having given away a penalty at the other end for a handball.
Suarez was heavily criticized after the game and said on Twitter: "I m sad for what happened this afternoon, I apologize (to) Ivanovic and all football world for my inexcusable behaviour. I m so sorry about it!!"
Suarez was banned for seven matches in 2010 for biting an opponent while playing for Ajax against PSV Eindhoven in the Dutch league.
