During the first leg of PSG and Barcelona’s Champions League quarterfinal, Luis Suarez nutmegged David Luiz and went on to score twice in a span of 13 minutes. Twice he did this! Twice!
Though Barcelona went on to concede a late own goal in the 3-1 away win, Luiz’s greatest embarrassment since last summer’s World Cup, naturally was the focus of the night. After all, Suarez even appeared to literally spank his bottom at one point.
Just in case you weren’t convinced that Luis Suarez is completely devoid of the ability to take responsibility for his own actions, his latest comments on his bite victims should clear that up. According to Suarez, Branislav Ivanovic and Giorgio Chiellini deserve blame for being bitten by him since they were annoying. Victim blaming ahoy!
Though Luis Suarez has become an important member of Barcelona’s squad in his first season with the club, there’s something about him that remains distinctly…kickable. Teammates Neymar and Dani Alves demonstrated this during a recent training session.
This was surely just a bit of playfulness between teammates, but if Barca are looking for a new revenue stream, they could start charging members of the general public to play this game, too. They would never need a Qatari shirt sponsor again.
Adidas has launched a new campaign entitled “There Will Be Haters” starring Gareth Bale, James Rodriguez, Karim Benzema and Luis Suarez to promote their new collection of boots. Suarez’s inclusion is notable since he is the only non-Real Madrid player of the bunch and the company pulled ads featuring him after he bit Italy’s Giorgio Chiellini during last summer’s World Cup.
Luis Suarez collided with Neymar during a Barcelona training session. As we know from past incidents, this type of thing can result in Suarez burrowing his teeth into the other person’s body, but this time Suarez saved Neymar by shoving him away before the temptation to bite overwhelmed him.
This is what progress looks like.
