Suarez earlier served a 10-match ban in England in 2013 for doing the same to Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic and a seven-match ban in 2010 during his time at Dutch club Ajax, when he bit PSV Eindhoven's Otman Bakkal.

Television replay showed that Suarez moved his head towards Chiellini, who swung his arm, before chasing the referee to apparently insist he had been bitten on his shoulder.
