Inter Miami’s Luis Suárez Apologizes for on-Field Antics After Leagues Cup Final Loss to Seattle

- Luis Suárez apologized on Thursday after appearing to spit toward Seattle Sounders director of security Gene Ramirez following the Leagues Cup final at Lumen Field on Sunday.
- Suárez ignited a postgame melee shortly after the final whistle, sparking multiple scuffles and pushes between both teams' players and staff before medal ceremonies.
- Suárez grabbed Sounders defender Obed Vargas by the neck, and Oscar Ustari then pulled Suárez away while Busquets struck Vargas and Cody Baker intervened.
