Of course, Suárez has been a phenomenon in the realm of theatrics for years. The striker is known for his antics and hasn't forgotten them even in the autumn of his career. When Grêmio faced off against Cruzeiro, the former Ajax player made that clear once again.
Just before half-time, Suárez wanted to earn a free kick on the sideline after a relatively innocuous challenge. To his great frustration, however, he couldn't convince the referee to call the foul committed by the Cruzeiro defender. To make his point, the forward screamed out in anger, while taking off his shoe to emphasize his claim.
Suárez went to the ground groaning in pain, but defender Marlon was having none of it. At the moment when the Uruguayan continued to complain, Marlon seized the opportunity. The Cruzeiro player quickly grabbed Suárez's removed shoe and threw it into the stands. That proved to be adding fuel to the fire.
By the way, Suárez had the last laugh himself. The striker opened the scoring against Cruzeiro and provided a phenomenal assist, after which his team took control in the second half against the rival. As a result, Grêmio secured the full three points (3-0).
