Any ban can only involve international matches, they have no say on domestic bans for matches etc, unless they imposed a full ban from football for a period of time, but that is very unlikely
A FIFA imposed worldwide ban has to be the only punishment. He's acting like a badly behaved 3 year old, FFS. If he did it just the once, took his punishment and then never did it again you could say it was just one of those moments of madness that some people are prone to. But this is the third time. No excuses.
FIFA.com - 25/06/2014 FIFA can confirm that disciplinary proceedings have been opened against the player Luis Suarez of Uruguay following an apparent breach of art. 48 and/or art. 57 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code during the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ match Italy-Uruguay played on 24 June 2014. The player and/or the Uruguayan FA are invited to provide with their position and any documentary evidence they deem relevant until 25 June 2014, 5pm, Brasilia time. According to art. 77 lit. a of the FIFA Disciplinary Code (FDC), the FIFA Disciplinary Committee is responsible for sanctioning serious infringements which have escaped the match officials’ attention. Furthermore, according to art. 96 of the FDC, any type of proof may be produced (par. 1), in particular are admissible, reports from referees, declarations from the parties and witnesses, material evidence, audio or video recordings (par. 3).
Same, sort of. I'm expecting a ban from this World Cup, and nowt else, which really is the same as doing nowt.
Tbf to suarez, he never bites the softer players. If I were to bite people on a football field Ivanovic an Chiellini wouldn't be my first choices the mad bastard
Suarez is a talented footballer, no ban needed. Just make him play out his career with a bucket on his head like dogs wear
Suarez' lawyer is just as daft as him... "We don't have any doubts that this has happened because it's Suarez and secondly because Italy was eliminated, there's a lot of pressure from England and Italy, we're polishing off a defence argument. There is a possibility that they ban him, because there are precedents, but we're convinced that it was an absolutely casual play, because if Chiellini can show a scratch on one shoulder, Suarez can show a bruised and almost shut eye."
