[h=2]LUIS SUAREZ'S explosive race row with Patrice Evra was tonight fully revealed by the FA.[/h]
Liverpool star Suarez was slapped with an eight-match ban for racially abusing the Manchester United defender.Suarez called Evra a 'negro' seven times in the stormy Premier League clash at Anfield in October.The report by an independent commission says when Evra asked Suarez why he had been kicked, the striker replied in Spanish: "Porque tu eres negro," which translates as "because you are black."Evra said he would punch Suarez if he repeated the comment to which Suarez said: "No hablo con los negros" "I don't speak to blacks."Linguistic experts were used by the FA to assess how abusive Suarez's language was.The FA says Suarez has pledged not to use the word "negro" on a football pitch in England in the future.The full 115-page report into the incident also claimed Suarez gave unreliable and inconsistent evidence to the commission.
