Biting back: Suarez returns

His four-month ban from football - for biting a fellow player in the World Cup - ends in October. But the controversial and talented Uruguayan striker, Luis Suarez, was back playing last night - for the first time in a Barcelona shirt - in a friendly game. It follows a decision by the Court of Arbitration in Sport that Suarez can train and play in non-competitive games. His debut, against the Mexican side Leon, was very short - but it got the fans talking, as Tom Burridge reports from Barcelona.
