Luis Suárez Bite Vs. Claudio Marchisio Tackle: Which World Cup Foul Was Worse?

Tuesday afternoon's World Cup match between Uruguay and Italy featured a pair of egregious
fouls, as players from both sides took their quest to earn a spot in the knockout round a bit too far.

First, Italy's Claudio Marchisio, a midfielder, received a red card in the 59th minute for a tackle on Uruguay's Egidio Arévalo.

Marchisio was moving into Uruguayan territory when he
lost control of the ball to Arévalo.

Unwilling to concede possession, Marchisio kicked Arévalo hard in the shin instead of mak

ing an attempt at the ball.

As an injured Arévalo rolled around on the ground, the
referee signaled that Marchisio would be sent off.
