Probably Suarez’s most controversial moment came in Uruguay’s 2010 World Cup game against Ghana. Uruguay were hanging on desperately for a draw in the quarterfinals and with extra time approaching, Ghana was pushing on for a win.
The Ghanaians had their golden chance just minutes from full time when a goal-mouth scramble resulted in a header from Dominic Adiyiah making its way into an open net. Luis Suarez though was having none of it.
The striker who was back on his goal line in a defensive role threw out an outstretched arm and literally flung the ball out of the goal. He did receive a red card for his efforts and Ghana went on to receive a penalty which Gyan missed sparking wild celebrations on the touchline from the man of the moment, Suarez, himself.
Uruguay went on to win the game and the striker was hailed as a hero. A despicable cheat more like.
"I made the best save of the tournament." claimed Luis to further incense Ghana fans.
