Uruguay’s Luis Suarez bit an opponent at the World Cup. Suarez, who earned a 10-match ban in 2013 for biting Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic, bit Italy’s Giorgio Chiellini late into Uruguay’s final group game. Suarez also earned a seven-match ban in 2010 for biting a player in the Eredivisie....FIFA has banned players from the World Cup for misconduct before, with the longest such ban an eight-game suspension for Italy's Mauro Tossotti in 1994.Could FIFA impose a similar punishment in Suarez's case?
The maximum ban Suarez could face if Fifa takes retrospective action is 24 matches or two years considering it is a repeat offence. He and Uruguay FA have to respond to fifa by wednesday.
