No, because it wasn't a sending off offence then

A penalty was awarded and Portugal scored. Sadly for them it wasn't enough to avoid a 2-1 defeat.

The problem with Suarez wasn't that he handled on the line - it looked instinctive and any player would have done it. He was rightly sent off and a penalty was rightly awarded. There are no further sanctions within the laws of the game. Sadly for Ghana they missed the pelanty and what is likely to have been the winning goal. the problem was Suarez jumping about on the sidelines (when he should have been trotting down the tunnel for his early bath) and his assertion afterwards that it was the save of the tournament. No humility and no class.
