Suarez facing lengthy ban as FA act

The FA have charged Liverpool forward Luis Suarez with violent conduct for biting Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.

The incident occurred in the 74th minute of Sunday’s 2-2 draw at Anfield, in which Suarez went on to score a 96th-minute equaliser.

Suarez could face an extended ban after the FA claimed the standard three-match ban for violent conduct was “clearly insufficient”.
