Justice! Suarez gets 4 month ban and 100,000CHF fine from FIFA. Largest penalty for any player in FIFA history.
The biter's world cup is over as of this morning.
He cannot play in any match until October, and will miss at least 9 premiership matches.
His sponsor 888poker, whose $75m dollar deal with him put him in to the top 10 highest paid footballers list, announced yesterday before the decision, that they were "reviewing their relationship with him and we will not tolerate unsporting behavior".
888poker have not made a statement since FIFA ruled today, but by all accounts it looks like Suarez will make history as having the shortest sponsorship deal in history. He may even have to give back some of the advance money so this is going to hit Saurez where it really hurts: His wallet.
On another note, while USA didn't exactly play well, given the conditions and that it was against Germany who have killed everyone so far, it's actually a pretty decent result.
