Luis Suarez seemed to bite someone again on a football field – and this time it was his Inter Miami teammate Jordi Alba.
Miami faced Lafc on Wednesday in the second stage of their Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals when Chaos followed by the end of the game, after a result at Lionel Messi.
La's Marlon Santos was booked for the challenge and the two parties began to push and push each other, with Alba and Suarez among those to get involved in the Fracas.
At one point Suarez felt a hand on his upper chest and nibbled briefly that it was a Lafc player next to him.
However, the hand actually belonged to Alba and the left seemed to have pain afterwards when Olivier Giroud also grabbed him.
Eventually the game ended in favor of Miami when they won 3-2 aggregated.
Suarez is of course a repeated perpetrator when it comes to biting others on the field.
His first biting incident dates from his days in Ajax, when he bit PSV's Otman Bakkal in 2010.
He then received seven games through the Dutch football federation and was also a fine of his own club.
Suarez later beten in Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic during a Premier League match in 2013, while the Uruguayan played for Liverpool.
That resulted in a ban of 10 games from the English FA, although he apparently did not learn his lesson because he bite notorious Giorgio Chiellini at the World Cup the following year.
According to that shocking scene – in which Chiellini pulled down his shirt to reveal bite marks on his shoulder – Suarez was banned from football activity by FIFA for four months.
The striker hit the ground last season and came to Messi at Inter Miami and scored 20 league goals in just 21 starts.
This season he only scored once in the seven starts so far, although he also contributed five assists.
Miami pulled 0-0 on Sunday with the Chicago Fire.
