Luis Suarez: "Fans should focus on themselves"

Suarez to ignore British crowd

Luis Suarez has claimed that he will ignore the jeers from British fans when he appears for Uruguay against Team GB in the Olympics on Tuesday.

The Liverpool striker was targeted by a Wembley crowd during Uruguay's 2-0 loss to Senegal on Sunday but he insists that he will not be troubled by the reception he receives at the Millennium Stadium.

Suarez said: "Fans should focus on themselves and their own team.

"What interests me is the Liverpool fans and the Uruguay fans."

The 25-year-old striker has been jeered by many British supporters since he was charged by the FA after being accused of racially abusing Manchester United defender Patrice Evra.
