Springsteen to Suárez: ‘Biting has no place in sports’

The Boss condemns the Uruguayan striker over biting incident in World Cup game against Italy. How will the Uruguayan FA and media react? After accusing the British and Italian media of deliberately stirring up hatred for Luis Suárez, they now face a new accuser over the incident in which the striker appeared to bite Italy’s Giorgio Chiellini in Tuesday’s World Cup game.

“Biting has no place in sports,” Bruce Springsteen has pronounced. And if the words of the Boss don’t convince Suárez to change his behaviour, what will?

Springsteen, who was talking to TMZ, asked: “What are the rules about biting in the World Cup? There probably should be one.” He added that Mike Tyson’s biting of Evander Holyfield during their 1997 world heavyweight title fight should be considered “the last bite”.

Bob Dylan, however, is not yet believed to have an offered an opinion on the Suárez controversy. If he does, we will let you know.
