Luis Suarez was on the end of an elbow from Xabier Etxeita in an off-the-ball incident at the Camp Nou

Luis Suarez scored a hat-trick for Barcelona during their 6-1 win over Athletic Bilbao on Sunday, but also appeared to be on the end of an unfortunate incident too.

Athletic centre-back Xabier Etxeita ran alongside Suarez before he put his arm across the face of the Barca striker.

The Bilbao midfielder was accused of intentionally planting his elbow out as Suarez hit the floor immediately after the connection was made.
