Hate the bloke, but that's crap. Nailed on penalty - even if he did make the most of it. Keeper was an idiot - he's going away from goal, has centre halves in the six yard box to cover, yet goes tearing out at him. Any striker in the world would have done exactly the same thing in Suarez's situation there.
Where was the contact? He wasn't touched.
Guzan makes a poor decision but doesn't touch the player.
Seen it a few times now on the highlights button. Absolute 100% penalty. His right foot was taken away by the goalkeeper's thigh. From one angle it does look as if there is very little contact or maybe even Suarez deliberately clipped the goalkeeper with his foot. But from the other angles, including the Refs, it was clearly a penalty.

Clearly makes contact with him. Clearly. You might not see it from one angle, but it's there on all the others. Witness Guzan's lack of any real protestations of innocence. He knows he caught him, and knows it was a penalty.
Name a premier league player that's well known for honesty and fair play on the pitch? Suarez appears to just not give a toss how his antics are perceived in these circumstances.
He is competitive and just wants to win to the point of exceeding fair play.
Back to his cheating best again today. From broken leg to Usain Bolt in a millisecond.
Cos Suarez is the only player in the world to do something like that
Sadly it's a foreign disease that has infected our game. I reckon goofy is the worst in the Premier. I'm struggling to think of an English player that would act like that.
The reason they are playing top flight football is for the undeniable desire to win at all costs. That can sometimes be the difference between a good player and a great one.
Gerrard? Are you sure? He's never struck me as being anywhere near Suarez, Young et al.
Remember the dive he took when going past Kish in our halcyon days. Looked ridiculous as Kish didn't even stick his leg out, funnily enough he wasn't booked.

If it was a Charlton goalie = defo dive.

Ashley Young, Sterling, Gerrard to name 3.
That's one of many. Including in the Champions League final to win Liverpool a penalty.

Must pick up Long Wave on them.
