Case No. 82: Luis Suarez

At the 2014 World Cup, this prolific international striker sank his teeth into an Italian defender's shoulder — the third documented time he'd bitten an opponent mid-match.

The full story

Luis Suárez bit Italy's Giorgio Chiellini at the 2014 World Cup — following earlier biting incidents at Ajax and Liverpool — and received a four-month FIFA ban from all football. Barcelona completed his transfer that same summer.

The clues we handed out

— FIFA banned him from all football activity for four months.

— Bites one and two came while playing for Ajax and Liverpool.

— Barcelona signed him weeks later anyway, completing a front three with Messi and Neymar.

— He and Mike Tyson could compare notes.

— Initials: L.S.
