Yeah that fact about fair play was lost to Italy when they won it last time around. I have never thought of Italy 06 as my world champions of football.
Anyway, Suarez's skills allowed him to be there to stop two shots when his team needed him the most. I can't speak about whether he should have done it or not but it's not easy to play a striker and be the last man standing between the ball and the goal. He cheated but he showed great skill and tremendous anticipation. The pic above says it all.
Then again it's a terrible message to send out to young footballers across the globe, but it shows knowledge of the rules and how they can be applied in your favor. I didn't like it myself cause I think Ghana would have put up more of a fight in a match against the Netherlands. I guess we'll see.
He will be playing no part in the rest of the tournament. That's what I read.
