- Herons missed out on major silverware
- Tempers boiled over at the final whistle
- Uruguayan star likely to land suspension
Lionel Messi and Co missed out on more major silverware when suffering final heartache against MLS rivals. Javier Mascherano’s side never got going in a contest that saw Seattle prevail 3-0 at Lumen Field.
Suarez allowed his temper to boil over at the final whistle, with the veteran striker confronting Sounders midfielder Obed Vargas. The Uruguayan frontman grabbed his opponent by the neck, before players from both teams piled into an unsightly melee.
After being dragged away from the confrontation, Suarez was caught on camera taking in an angry exchange with the Sounders’ director of security Gene Ramirez. Suarez spat at the staff member before Herons goalkeeper Osar Ustari once again pulled the volatile 38-year-old away from an unnecessary argument.
السابق-ليفربول و برشلونة forward Suarez has previously been involved in three biting incidents and numerous other instances of violent conduct. He is expected to face further punishment for his latest actions.
Hector Herrera was given a three-game ban by MLS for spitting in the direction of a referee last season, while بحيرة سولت الحقيقية‘s Jasper Loffelsend was suspended two matches in 2023 for spitting at an opponent.
Sergio Busquets is another ex-Barca star on انتر Miami’s books that could find himself in trouble, with the كأس العالم winner putting his hands into the face of Vargas after the post-game scuffle was sparked.
