Luis Suarez

Days after his outburst in which he spat on an assistant coach, Luis Suarez has regained his composure. He issued an apology via a public statement.

Following the League Cup final defeat to Seattle, Luis Suarez made headlines by spitting on a staff member from the opposing club. This occurred after he stormed across the field and grabbed midfielder Obed Vargas by the neck. The scenes were distressing. It took four days for El Pistolero to offer his apology.

“First of all, I want to congratulate the Seattle Sounders for their victory in the Leagues Cup. But above all, I want to apologize for my behavior after the match. It was a very tense and frustrating moment. Things happened right after the final whistle that shouldn’t have happened, but that doesn’t justify my reaction. I was wrong and I truly regret it. This is not the image I want to project, neither to my family, who suffer because of my mistakes, nor to my club, which doesn’t deserve to be affected by such a situation. I am sorry for what happened and I didn’t want to miss the opportunity to acknowledge it and apologize to everyone who was wronged. We know the season is still long, and we will work together to achieve the success this club and all its supporters deserve,” he wrote in a story on his Instagram account.
