Luis Suárez bit the Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic after becoming embroiled in a tussle with him. |
Luis Suarez could receive more than a three-match ban after being charged by the Football Association with violent conduct on Monday for biting Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.
The Liverpool striker was given until 1700 GMT on Tuesday to respond to the charge before a disciplinary committee is convened.
The FA warned that the standard punishment of three matches "is clearly insufficient in these circumstances".
Suarez, who bit Ivanovic's right arm during the 2-2 draw at Anfield in the Premier League on Sunday, has already been fined by the club.
He has asked for the money to be donated to the Hillsborough Family Support Group.
