Uruguay’s star striker Luis Suarez has been accused of biting a player for the third time in his career after an incident with Giorgio Chiellini at the FIFA World Cup following their win over Italy this morning.
The Liverpool striker attacked the Italian defender shortly before Diego Godin scored to give Uruguay a 2-1 win.
Chiellini pulled his shirt down to show the referee a mark on his shoulder but no action was taken by the official.
The maximum ban Suarez could face if governing body FIFA takes retrospective action is 24 matches or two years.
Suarez told the BBC after the match that there are things that happen on the pitch and they should not make such a big deal out of them.

Uruguay will meet Colombia in one elimination game at 8am Sunday while Brazil takes on Chile at 4am.
