This was actually one of the worst interviewers I’ve seen in my life
Nothing but accusations. Stupid evil interview.
dude can’t even pronounce chiellini properly lol
He asks Suarez about a very serious issue (racism) and Suarez answers in a serious way, and in the meantime he is doing keepy ups...
Pathetic interviewer if you ask me
Exactly
That is beacuse people in South America never talk about race. Like never, for example I am from Colombia and never heard the word "racist" until people started accusing Trump of being racist against latinos in the 2016 election.
@@guida1480 lol
Who was that annoying tw*t interviewing Suarez? Unbearable
I mean, you can't bite an opponent on 3 different occasions and expect to never get asked about it LUL.
Biting is weird
this interviewer literally puts pressure on Suarez but when Suarez starts to get frustrated, the interviewer changes the subject.
He was scared that he was gonna bite him too 😅
How did Suarez stay so calm?
Because after all he had done he wanted to be calm in this interview
So he wont look bad
he bit his limbs of later on
Because he kept biting the interviewer in between takes
Probably gave him his rabbies shots!!
Or bite the interviewer !! Por chimozo.. cannibal
suarez handled this terrible interviewer in a good way..
Mike Baron I was expecting a good bite!!
Michael Garcia ur a barça fan I can tell
Smeerplayz what’s wrong with being a Barca fan?
JACKPLAYS YT nah he’s just defending one of the most controversial footballers in history. With 3 bites in his career he should have had a permanent ban
@@smeer4403 sergio ramos left the chat
"is there something autistic about you that makes you bite", this man is goat
Lol yeah hahahhaah at 1:53
The goat of the worst interviewer
i hate the way he said that
It’s actually kinda ableist he’s associating violence with autism when there is no known correlation
The nutmeg sums up the interview pretty well.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
the interviewer was very weird but most of those questions needed to be asked. period
is it just me or is suarez's ears kinda wierd?
He has a up coming role in the hobbit
😂💀
+Bryant Tepale wats so funny?
Pedro Hernandez what you said i found it funny. why it wasnt a joke?
+Bryant Tepale it was 😂 I thought you were laughing about the other comment
Strangest interviewer ever, and what was the point of that at 3:34?
xEazy420 I LMAO at that, what a tosser
xEazy420 i
xEazy420 factss
he was so annoying motherfekir
Wait what did he do?
“It seems like Suarez is getting more irritated”...
*Proceeds to take a shot that is miles off target*
Nice one.
Hahahahaha that was mint The interviewer is autistic hence the question and awkwardness tho
This is like an Ali G interview ffs 😂
4:03 the interviewer irritated him so he nutmegged him
It's true. Even tho I live in the US my family Mexican and even though I'm not black everyone in my family calls me black or negro. But in Spanish the word negro sounds way much light worded than in English. We call all light skin people negros if they are part of my culture. But when it comes to real black people who are not part of my culture I do not call them that. It's not being racist it's just a way of talking.
this bitch biting ppls
Brandon Avila He had been in England for over 3 years. In that time he should have know that the n word is racist
Louis Highlights the incident happened in his for season for Liverpool smh...
URU_ Manu when you move to a country you should know that stuff like that is offence
Negro in spanish isnt the n word, there is no n word. Negro means black, do a little reading for Gods sake. As he said, in laitn america calling someone negro is a term of endearment, or a way of saying something not because you are black. My moms nickname til this day is negra. Doesnt matter if he lived in England 20 years doesnt change him culturally.
Oh look at Suarez ,, the best Uruguayan goalkeeper ever
I am a umited fan and African born, how ever I got south american friend. Accordingto him a good percent of that continent is black and I have never experienced racism from a south american. If susrez say he is not racist , I trust him. Glad evra and suarez pass that stage now! Two great players from 2 great continent.
Moonfish2011 true!
+Moonfish2011 so you are Brazilian
Man, sorry to say that Racism is strong in Latin America. Almost everybody who is rich or middle class are white, and those who are economical poor are often black or indigenous. I've been around Latin America and it's very obvious. The denial of racism is very big because they have different history and type of colonial project. You don't have to believe me, but I urge you to watch the documentary series called "Black in Latin America" with professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. - especially the episode of Brazil, you can find it easily here on youtube:
czcams.com/video/Gh7c46U5hhY/video.html
What about the evra incident
The thing is, in Uruguay and South America, there are many black players, in Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador and even a bit in chile. Only country that has very few black people are Argentina or Paraguay. Judging from where Suarez is from, it’s normal what he said, he got called the n word because he has black hair. It’s not just for your skin colour, over there the ppl are very welcoming, family orientated and racism is pretty much non existent there. Just look at their traditional maté tea that they drink, they share with everyone to get a sip, or their late night bbq with friends and family. They share a lot of love and passion which they transmit in football. Uruguay had and still have black players in which Suarez is brothers with. He’s apologised because it came across badly, he was uneducated that in Europe it’s bad to say these things. He’s learnt from it and moved on. Ppl forget the colonisers and the dirty racists made these words as bad as they are when 1000years ago, it was just a way to identify someone, like you call someone a ginger or blondie.
This interviewer is asking questions other journalists are afraid to ask, but would gladly say behind their back or in their little mail online column, bravo.
4:11 Getting ready to bite!
He’s just sharpening his teeth, for the interviewer.
King Khal ,The king of hearts! 😂🤣
Why is the interviewer trying to show his tekkers off😂😂😂
"you say the thing that upset you the most is when they called you racist"
Yes, because there was no proof 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣
Got me shaking my head at that too😬
Suarez Grandfather is Black and he grew up with many Black people
@@jardinesadallah6009 Suarez Grandfather is Black
Okay so most of the people calling him racist are raised differently in a different place and way of speaking.
Some things might seem off to you'll but it's like a normal trash talk for others and vice versa.
If you'll never want to understand the other sides argument, considering yourself the best version of human that's the kind of person you were raised to be.
Your teeth are offside Suarez, your teeth are offside!
i remember that match where someone was singing that xD
TheAnnoyedDog you've never been to a game you liar
Shut the hell up
Limp shut the hell up
Soares🐐😈🤣🤣🤣
Racist chant
its a shame about suarez, i really want to like him because hes such a good player and is at an amazing club, but its hard to like someone who bites other players and racially abuses them.
I was just wondering.. do you like Roy Keane?
I was just wondering.. do you like Roy Keane?
@@razorlord9330Roy Keane hasn't bit anyone or racially abused anyone you melon
You didn’t even watch the video of him explaining the different connotations of the world in his lenguage, English people are so close minded
@@ezelegui7901 what's with the handshake situation then?
What a strange interviewer, Suarez handled the questions very well.
what kind of gay reporter is that?
I thought he was gay too but he is married
+gio2812872 He's a Jew. That explains everything
+ojideagu He's a Jew. Explains everything.
ikr
suarez a racist and bitter
Poor Suarez, why cant people just leave him the fuck alone? He has explained himself a thousand times.
Wasn't a great interview to be honest, not terrible but I can see why he'd be tired of the same questions. Why would he want to talk about those things if the Clasico and his return is coming up? Unless of course this interview was done a while back and released now to drum up hype for the game. Interesting nonetheless and I'm sure these will get better as they go on.
NOT EVEN ONCE did Suuarez apologise for any of the biting incidents, OR the Evra situation. He has shown himself to be a mealy-mouthed coward, who comes up with weak excuses, never admitting he was wrong. Evra has shown himself to be a much better example to look up to for our youngsters.
He did. Go back to 1:50 to 1:54
He did, many times..about the incident with chiellini they even met many times n shook hands n talked but he never apologised abt the incident with ivanovic..
Did u forget that Evra kicked a fan in the face?
Didn't Evra attack a fan one time?
I mean if he looked like that and didnt want to bite people I'd ask even more questions
Great interview. These questions had to be asked. It's better for Suarez anyway to get it out/ admit to his mistakes rather than everyone hating on them
gameover8414 and asking “ do you think you have a problem “
The state of that interviewer...
What's weird is that he's hurt that he was labelled a racist when there was no proof, not that he was labelled a racist when he isn't one.
He banned from a cople of matches accused of diving only for celebrating with a slide mimicking a dive. He didn't do it to take an advantage on the game, it was a celebration which didn't have anything to do with the goal he scored previously, yet he was convicted as he did. The racism accusation is the same thing, is bad that he was accused of something he isn't but doing so without evidence is much worse.
themumblr There you go you caught on. Suarez is Racist no arguing that Done.
Sonofed3 if you don’t speak spanish you won’t really understand it. Negro is not the same meaning as what it is in english.
themumblr it's the same thing idiot
Santiago Moraes you Suarez apologists keep ignoring the part where he also said "blackie blackie blackie". Now you don't need to speak spanish to know what the context to that really is. Stop being pathetic
Such a weird interview, any need for the kickups?
1:54 wtf
@@mason4625 exactly I’m autistic and we are not more likely to be violent as neurotypicals.
That reporter is so disrespectful, i hate suarez but damm he was being vert polite and trying to answer all the questions and the reporter juggling the ball and kept saying sorry but still doing it. wow what a bad act from the reporter
Bitch I Hate You
Freddy Rick y tho?
How can u hate suarez
To all wondering why he didn't deny it ,just said that there is no proof.
It's because he can't understand how many people belief something so fully without solid proof.
He knows he wasn't being racist,his close friends and family do as well,and that's enough for him.But the fact that that incident will always be stain on his name bothers him.
Especially because he isn't racist.
What proof do you have that he isn't racist?
@blahblahlablah proof? He has had so many black teammates whom he hanged out with, joked around like brothers.
That's so true. Every culture have their own way of speaking
the interviewers got no tekkers
soo he's bothered being called a racist because they had no proof?
not because it's not true?
okay then mister racist...
I like how he never denied being racist he just said they had no proof
He's not racist black people always play race card which stupid Evra did
Liam Hummel-Ward he did say I’m not racist it’s just that the captions left it out and I know Spanish
He’s denied he’s racist on multiple occasions
The interviewer had a thing for Suarez
He lied about the racism though, he definitely racially abused Evra and he is not sorry at all, he just denied it.
This hole thing of him being accused of being racist is just a total misunderstanding base mainly on language and cultural difference. He was not being racist at all to the Man U black player and he took advantage of Luis Suarez not able to express himself in English. The worst is the English media. One of the reason he decided to move to Spain is because of media in England and the language problem issue, is not that he does not want to play for Liverpool any more.
Alfred Malam he shouldn’t have said the n word. He claims there is no proof, so he is denying something he clearly said. He is a liar and is in fact racist.
As a mexican, I have to agree that using the word "negro" is not considered racist in latin culture... it just means black (as in the color). We dont have a lot of problems between races like in the US because the great majority of the people are of mixed race. The problems we do have are mainly between classes but not much to do with race. Its unfortunate that it is such a sore subject in western cultures (rightly so) that it is so hard to understand latin people don't deal with the same struggles as other countries.
This is 100% accurate. I’m from Argentina and it’s the same here. Unfortunately Suarez didn’t know how serious this is in USA and Europe and had to pay the price.
Really? These questions again? Why you don't ask him about his Golden Boot or about the transfer to Barcelona or if he strange to be in Uruguay . It seems disrespectful talk about issues that happened in 2011 (three years ago).
I found a gruesome note , missed information. They should have better used the time with a glory of world football, in a few years hopefully not grant them interviews because he probably will again ask about biting ... gross
Go #LuisSuárez !!! May you prove your talent tomorrow, so you will shut up these disrespectful journalists
Why is the European Teams being played by Africans?
He’s racist and bites players yet u defend him
@@deway7521 Jezus man he is not racist
@@romandarius6041 Why not?
I watched the interview he doesn't even deny being racist he just says he's upset because there wasn't proof 😂🤣🤣
Why is the reporter talking to him as if he is a child? Using his hands like that..
Well, only children tend to bite people.
Suarez shared the Golden Boot with Ronaldo, though. Convenient of you to leave that out. 00:20
Obsessed with the fact there was no proof, he knows what he said
Can’t prove anything without facts. Isn’t that how it is?
@@Steelcityjb98 what there to be proven though he has admitted to calling him the word.
They asked me about the bite 38,000 times.... hahaha!!!
Time puts things in their place, in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil Uruguay defeated England with 2 goals from Suare, and in the 2015 Champions League final Suarez scored the winning goal with Evra and Chiellini in front.
What does it mean that they performed so poorly at the WC
2:32 if Suarez punched him at that moment no one would blamed him
On 20 December, the FA concluded a seven-day hearing, finding Suarez guilty "on the balance of probabilities" of using "insulting words including a reference to Mr. Evra's colour" and handing Suárez an eight-match ban and a £40,000 fine. The FA also made it clear in its summary that "it did not contend that Mr Suarez acted as he did because he is a racist. Mr Evra said in his evidence that he does not think Mr Suárez is a racist".[20][21]
I agree with luis suarez , stop to ask him for his error everyday !
yes very right!! stop asking him the same questions! !!!
I liked this way to interview him. While playing with the ball he could relax more and, probalby, with less time to build a lie.
This fool was caught calling dude "blackie" in Spanish. But yet, there's "nO pRoOf" 🤦🏿♂️
Brilliant interview. These are the questions people want asked
It's interesting actually... in India/Pakistan also, saying the word for black "kaala" is not considered racist. It's common to talk about skin color when addressing a friend or classmate, and though it may hurt the person being addressed, it's the same way a sensitive person might feel hurt even when called something like "stupid". Overall though, still shocked/amused to see that he doesn't seem to think biting is all that bad lol.
It's considered racist in western countries because everyone is a 'left liberal' and they all fucking circle jerk over being politically correct about everything.
Not true mate, Uruguay is a western country and it's the most progressive country in Latin America, It's pretty leftist, and yet we say "Negro" all the time almost like the British say "mate", mainly because we don't consider that being "black" is a bad thing, or that the word "black" is an insult
@@Diegomax90argentina is leftist Uruguay not
This reporter is a disgrace. You get the chance to interview Suarez and you show no respect. Yes Suarez has made mistakes but who hasn't?
The Boss he has already talked about that back then, no need to bring up present mistakes. It’s about what he does now and not what he has done years ago
Typical guardian reporting... Good on Suarez for staying calm!
Jackie Chode Yeah, at least Suarez is smart enough not to try bite the journo in front of the cameras 😂
Little Blue Elephant that wasn’t funny
English media is so jealous of suarez! even tho the EPL is claimed to be the biggest league they can never produce classy players like messi neymar suarez! no matter what! all the great players are from anywhere apart from england LOL
pingopong Yeah totally... Cuz Beckham, Rooney, Gerard, Wilshire, Sturridge, Young, JT, Sterling, Kane, are all so far from classy players right? .....da fuq!? haha
Dylan Nicklin yes we saw their so called classy players perform in the FIFA world cup! abso-fucking-lutely shite! admit it all of the above players are no where near suarez or near his talent! No disrespect to England i love the country but i think EPL is more about money! sorry mate they can never produce a messi no matter what!
pingopong I agree.. it is painful to watch them in the world cup cuz they never play up to their potential.. however if you've been following the qualifying Euro international cup they are the only team who is undefeated right now 7-0... so there is hope for England. And you have to give them credit that they are all exceptional players individually for their clubs. They are essentially an all-star team when you look at the individual players.
check out the highlights from their most recent games pingopong they've been killing it!
Dylan Nicklin The only reason they are undefeated in the Euro is because they dint come across a messi, neymar, suarez, or any south american giant, EPL is all about money! The best EPL player for me is Gerrard, but he is no where close to xabi alonso or a xavi or an iniesta who play in mid field every team in the EPL have super stars from the EU. Rooney and Sturridge your best forwards were shite at the world cup! they couldnt do jack fuckin shit this year! not just this world cup take even the last one! admit it! and going back to the main point suarez is a great player, every player has thier moment of madness, what suarez did he bit a player right. SO WHAT! atleast he wansnt caught hooking up with a minor! how many man united players have done that? they were on the news for it, they were english players, rooney got caught cheating as well with another women, the whole point is if surez does something they make it look so big, when an English person does it they just brush it aside. Bham coach was sacked for taking a bribe and fixing matches can their be something more disgraceful that that? but why did he get away wth it? only because it is an english club!
This guy could have been a politician 😂😂
good desicion suarez , you are a good person, dont talk more please !!!
Luis Alberto Suárez Díaz (Salto, 24 de enero de 1987) es un futbolista uruguayo que juega como delantero y su equipo actual es el Inter de Miami de la Major League Soccer. Es internacional con la selección de fútbol de Uruguay desde el 7 de febrero de 2007. Reconocido por su habilidad de pase y definición, es ampliamente considerado uno de los mejores jugadores de su generación, así como uno de los más grandes delanteros de la historia.
professional player.. in the pitch he is the beast.. when off the pitch he is gentle person
Professional diver and vampire maybe. Trash human being.
@@imouto4hire Hater 🤣🤣
How about when he is in the bed with his wife??
3:22 the way he looks at him
should have got John Richardson to go, or Barry or Sid
What are those adidas called the ones suarez is using? Please i need to know
I guess the interpreter smoothed up the interview
Golden shoe?!? It’s the golden BOOT!
He's a genius!
Natalia Pérez 🐑😈🐼🤣🤣🤣 genius🤣🤣
Only ogs know
I wish him the best in the World Cup!
why is he talking spanish?i've seen him done a lot of interviews in english
There's no evidence he said are you blind mate
Amazing Footballer.....terrible human being!!!
No proof of racism
It's actually not his fault. His teeth are naturally large so if his face bumps someone it leaves teeth marks.
This is really weird that he is versus both players at the finals , let's go Suarez!! prove them wrong!!!Barcelona!!!
6:18 joke is on the reporter because that shot was WAY wide. Karma
this interviewer seems more concerned with doing keepy uppys than interviewing suarez...
As an interviewer, it's tough to ask tough questions... but well done guardian.
The golden shoe lol this man knows his football
Suarez sounds like Adam Sandler in spanish or what ever language he is talking in
spanish..
uncultured fuck. how could you not know that's Spanish.
BrokenGames I speak Spanish so I could tell the difference.
Its obviously spanish, hes uruguayan ffs
Kyle Stan what?
Cruel to put him on the spot like that. After he's already dealt with the controversy. Smh.
what fucking the way that he ask the quation is unrespect but suarez always is honesty
I dunno I thought it was pretty funny how blunt the reporter was...and also how suarez reacted
Evra could have lied. No one knows if Suarez really told Evra what Evra said he did.
Suarez admitted that he said it lmao, why would he admit something he didn't do
The interviewer is so annoying... "were you ashamed or mad of yourself when you bit Chelleini?" well, if he asks personal questions like that to the media what did you expect him to do?
Well it was a public bite in front of everyone. I think it is fair to be questioned about it in front of everyone as well.
Well some players kick, break body parts of the rivals when they are mad and lossing the match, but Suarez just bite. simple as that.
Goodbye Luis Suarez 💙♥️
You can feel the awkwardness in the entire interview.
That guy is the worst interviewer I have ever seen
y'all know he don't care about the hatere the haters keep him going like he's the best player out there the one that had more goal then messi,cr & now he got 2 golden boot
Sure, suarez has his issues but the interviewer acted very rude here.
So he is not bothered because he didn't say it .. he is angry because they have no proof?
01:19 freakin’ sweet Lois!
Suarez: *An old man interview me. And that hurts. And it still hurts*
Dam Luis Suárez is a beast
I guess he's the guy that says a tree falling doesn't make a sound if no one is there to hear it
Hi. Barca fan here. I may be a bit biased cause I love Luisito, but I think that was one of the most disrespectful and unprofesional interviews I have seen.
Well you might be ..
But it totally was
The reporter should have asked suarez about how he plays football . Like fine 1 or 2 questions about biting but does he realise he's speaking to one of the best footballers playing football?
damn he plays only 1 year in Spain and how good he is already at Spanish !
vnorj xrocw he plays 2 years for Barcelona and can already juggle a ball!
hehe
he was born in Uruguay, lol
This is the most retarded comment I've read.
read some history first, he is from Paraguay which was part of Brazil so he speaks portugal language
I used to hate Suarez but he grew on me
That nutmeg 🥜😩 Suarez couldn’t help.
