On the other hand, the victim, Patrice Evra expressed his views on the racist comments made by Suarez. Evra said that he is not trying to cash in with the situation, but found the comment very disappointing and upsetting. The Manchester United midfielder, however, did not reveal the exact words said by Suarez.

The penalty and match ban has been laid by the FA under violating the rules E3 (1) and E3 (2). Liverpool's manager Kenny Dalglish is still backing his striker and assured that the management will do as much help as possible to help him out.
