Suarez waits on hearing outcome

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez may have to wait until Friday to discover whether his defence against a racism charge has been successful after the second day of a disciplinary hearing.

Proceedings against the Uruguay international began on Wednesday in front of an independent three-man panel but, although more aspects of the case were heard on Thursday, Press Association Sport understands no decision is imminent.

The 24-year-old has been charged with abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra, and referring to his "ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race" by the Football Association.
