“Suarez did not kill anyone, the ban is a disgrace” – Maradona

Suarez bit June2014Argentina legend Diego Maradona, has criticized the four-month ban FIFA has slapped on Uruguay striker Luis Suarez, labelling it “a disgrace”.
Suarez has been handed a nine-game suspension from international football and banned from all anything related to football for four months, for biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini on the shoulder.
It is the third time the striker will be punished for biting another player, but Maradona says he has been treated like someone who committed murder.
“This decision is a disgrace,” he said on TV show, De Zurda. “I can’t understand this. Who did Suarez kill to get this kind of ban. Why don’t [Fifa] handcuff him and send him to Guantanamo [Bay]?
“A player works hard the whole year to be able to play at the World Cup, and Luis scored 29 goals and they kick him out of the World Cup like this. It’s unbelievable.
“Remember [Zinedine] Zidane and what he did in that [2006] World Cup final? Fifa then gave him the Golden Ball.”
