It was obviously not an attempt to play the ball, to me. It was a quick calculation and a Suarez vs Ghana moment. He gambled on the penalty over a tap in, and for a short-while, it was a gamble he won.
He should have been sent off 100%. Umtiti too, was not even carded for deliberately handling the ball to stop a chance against Australia. The concept has merit, but the reality encourages cheating.
