101 Fifa Worldcup Updates: Luis Suarez: What next for troubled Liverpool striker?

Uruguay's talisman has been removed from their World Cup reckoning for biting Italy's Giorgio Chiellini & Liverpool will be without arguably the Premier League's finest player until November.<br /><br />The shockwaves will have been felt from the Maracana in Rio, to Melwood back in Liverpool, as Luis Suarez received a four-month ban from all football-related activity & was suspended for Uruguay's next nine matches.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhr90iOGgbs-DPhZDZuJgdvohDi1OwEKhDAtDJztHAs_y5C1Xq3ycL16Sj4VMq04d3VJ_20r6XOt2EyVMRsb3ggoeAVGiTyHCJrfiLNFE1K3GApaZxwRYld4tShZ-QyHC-ZABJGx_cxtyA/s1600/_75855081_suarez.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="246" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhr90iOGgbs-DPhZDZuJgdvohDi1OwEKhDAtDJztHAs_y5C1Xq3ycL16Sj4VMq04d3VJ_20r6XOt2EyVMRsb3ggoeAVGiTyHCJrfiLNFE1K3GApaZxwRYld4tShZ-QyHC-ZABJGx_cxtyA/s1600/_75855081_suarez.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />This punishment outstrips the eight-game suspension given to Italy's Mauro Tassotti for breaking Luis Enrique's nose with an elbow against Germany in the 1994 finals.<br /><br />Fifa needed to act swiftly & decisively & has completed so on an unprecedented scale at a World Cup.<br /><br />This World Cup here in Brazil has been a celebration of glorious attacking footy & open games across this large, football-mad country.<br /><br />It is bites & out for the 27-year-old, who is a world-class player but a character out of control. It is clear that when club & country draw the line it is only a matter of time before Suarez steps over it.<br /><br />Suarez entered in to the spirit with a magnificent performance & goals in Uruguay's decisive win against England - only to leave the party in disgrace for his assault on Chiellini.<br /><br />In taking Suarez out of the World Cup, Fifa has wiped away the largest stain on events here in Brazil. Uruguay - in a state of lockdown & denial that did them a disservice - are instantly in reduced circumstances ahead of their meeting with Colombia at the Maracana on Saturday.<br /><br />They marvelled at the skills of Suarez against England & with Liverpool in the Premier League last season, but they could not escape a stiff sanction for his latest outrage.<br /><br />For all their complaints of an anti-Suarez agenda driven by the British media - keep in mind, this is the Footy Writers' Association footy player of the year - the Uruguayans' only complaint ought to be directed at the man who has effectively become a pariah at this World Cup.<br />

The fact it was completed in front<br /><br />a worldwide audience & was headline news in the United States, as well as on every sports & news programme in Brazil, only emphasises the damage they has completed to his, Uruguay's & the game's reputation.<br /><br />Owner John W Henry & manager Brendan Rodgers will have reacted with despair to Suarez's bite, & to the level of punishment inflicted on him & them.<br /><br />Liverpool will understandably feel aggrieved, not because of the support they gave Suarez after a similar assault on Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic at Anfield in April last year, but also because this did not happen on their watch.<br /><br />On a regular basis & patience they put in with Suarez last season, when they tried to make use of the Ivanovic bite as a lever to get out of Anfield, has been squandered in yet another moment of insanity.

101 Sports: Lionel Messi scored a superb goal as Argentina

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div>
Lionel Messi scored a superb aim as Argentina began their World Cup campaign with a win over World Cup debutants Bosnia-Hercegovina.</div>
<div>
Argentina went ahead when Messi's free-kick was put in to his own net by defender Sead Kolasinac.</div>
<div>
Messi then played a one-two with Gonzalo Higuain, jinked past defenders and rifled in to make it 2-0.The objective lifted Argentina and, despite Vedad Ibisevic slotting in late on for Bosnia-Hercegovina, they held on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
All eyes were on Messi in the first game of the match at the famous Maracana stadium in Rio and, although the four-time World Player of the Year took time to get going, he announced his arrival in sparkling style along with his objective.</div>
<div>
The strike was his second World Cup objective in nine games and provided the piece of mesmerising magic Messi managed in a game in which he and Argentina improved the longer it progressed.</div>
<div>
The blue and white of Argentina fans was prominent at the spiritual home of fierce rivals and hosts Brazil, although they had to watch on as a disciplined Bosnia stifled their side for most of the first half. However, Argentina never looked like adding to the objective as they lacked pace & invention, while regularly giving the ball away.</div>
<div>
Bosnia slowly settled in to the match & created sporadic chances, beginning with a Miralem Pjanic shot being punched away by keeper Sergio Romero.</div>
<div>
Pjanic also opened up Argentina when he clipped a ball over the top of their defence, which Izet Hajrovic brought down only for Romero to quickly come out & save.</div>
<div>
Argentina midfielder Javier Mascherano had a powerful low shot blocked away by Bosnia keeper Asmir Begovic before Bosnia again went close to equalising.</div>
