The Italian defender whose shoulder he sank his teeth into probably still doesn’t see the funny side.But
Luis Suarez’s extraordinary attack on Giorgio Chiellini was yesterday
the inspiration for dozens of joke images and videos on the internet.
One
mock-up that proved popular around the world had Suarez as Hannibal
Lecter, the cannibal criminal from the 1991 film The Silence of the
Lambs.The Uruguay striker
was also pictured as Dracula and even as the shark from the Hollywood
film Jaws the theme of a headline employed by the Mail yesterday.
Suarez’s
sponsors, who include Adidas, do not see the player’s third biting
outrage as a laughing matter however.The sportswear firm’s executives
met in Rio de Janeiro yesterday to discuss the incident.
A spokesman said:
‘Adidas is aware of the issue involving Luis Suarez. We await Fifa’s
full investigation into this matter and will respond accordingly.’ Adidas
took the unusual step of issuing a statement condemning Suarez’s
‘unacceptable’ actions when he bit Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic
during a Premier League game last year.
Poker
brand 888, which also has a deal with the player, said it would not
tolerate unsporting behaviour and was seriously reviewing its
relationship with the star.Liverpool fans are
anxiously awaiting the outcome of the investigation by Fifa. The global
governing body has the power to ban Suarez from club football as well as
from international games.
Suarez, a married
father of two, was suspended for seven games for biting PSV Eindhoven’s
Otman Bakkal on the shoulder while playing for Dutch club Ajax in 2010.He received a ten-game ban in England for biting Ivanovic.
