Uruguayan star Luis Suarez appeared to spit at a rival coach after Inter Miami’s 3-0 Leagues Cup final defeat
Moments after full-time, Suarez sparked a melee, grabbing Obed Vargas by the neck before tensions escalated with players and staff
In the chaos, Suarez appeared to spit toward a Seattle Sounders coach, needing teammates to hold him back
Seattle boss Brian Schmetzer: 'It takes away from a great performance.' Miami coach Javier Mascherano: 'Nobody likes these actions'
Not his first storm, Suarez has previously faced bans for racial abuse and three separate biting incidents in his career
Seattle dominated 3-0 in the final with goals from De Rosario, Alex Roldan, and Rothrock, lifting the spotlight away from the controversy.
