Barcelona star Luis Suarez in known for having quite a temper and it was on display last night in the Lincoln Financial Field stadium in Philadelphia.
The Uruguayan is in his country’s squad for the Copa America, but came into the competition carrying an injury and wasn’t deemed fit enough to play.
Uruguay lost to Mexico in the opening game, meaning they had to beat Venezuela in the second game to keep their tournament dreams alive.
Suarez was once again judged as unfit to start or even be named on the bench.

The player himself clearly didn’t agree with the decision – warming up on the sideline and gesturing in disgust towards manager Oscar Tabarez .
Luis Suárez taping up and warming up when he's not able to play (per the start list) is peak Luis Suárez.

Honestly, I could watch Luis Suárez pound plexiglass with his fists all night long.

But all the hissy fits in the world couldn’t change the fact that he wasn’t on the team sheet and Uruguay lost the game 1-0.
Edinson Cavani, who had gone close twice in the first half, should have equalised a minute from time but fired narrowly wide when through one-on-one with Jose Contreras.
Suarez’ side are still technically in the tournament, but it’s all over if Mexico beat or draw with Jamaica later on Thursday.
Bet there aren’t too many volunteering to watch the game with Chewy Luis.
