Claims the case was 'false' and he was 'accused without proof'

The striker was speaking to a radio station, Sport890 AM, in Uruguay

Suarez admits to 'two mistakes' in his career - the two biting incidents

Luis Suarez may have apologised for biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic but the Liverpool striker still claims the race row with Patrice Evra was 'false'.

Suarez was banned for eight matches and fined £40,000 for racially abusing the Manchester United defender in October 2011.

But in an interview with Uruguayan radio, Suarez said he still believes he has done no wrong.

Let me tell you, I've made only two mistakes in my career,' Suarez told Montevideo radio station Sport890 AM.

'My first was when I was playing for Ajax and I bit an opponent (Otman Bakkal). My second was when I bit (Branislav) Ivanovic.'

Suarez was banned for 10 matches for biting the Serbian defender.

He added: 'The case with Evra was all false. I was accused without proof. But that's in the past.

'I was sad at that moment, but I'm happy today. I have grown up. I have thought more about things before doing them.

'Now people in England can't talk about me because I'm not doing anything wrong. They have to talk about me only as a footballer. I said I'm sorry (after the Ivanovic bite) and that was all, end of story.

'I've nothing else to regret. All the other things were like a movie that people in England believed in.'

In the aftermath of the incident Liverpool wore t-shirts supporting the striker, while Suarez refused to shake hands with Evra when the two clubs next met.
