The worst thing that can happen is to hurt someone else and I have apologised for what happened in Holland. It\u2019s something I do regret but it\u2019s in the past, it\u2019s one of those things.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI won\u2019t say anything to Gyan. For me, he is just another player. Maybe it\u2019s still a big problem for others, but as far as I\u2019m concerned it must stay in the past.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not playing against one or two people. I\u2019m playing against the Sunderland team as a whole. For me, what\u2019s important is the result of the match. All I want is to win for Liverpool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suarez, who signed for Liverpool in a \u00a322.8 million deal in January, admits that he has been working on controlling his emotions as he adapts to his new life in England.<\/p>\n<p><!-- google_ad_section_end --><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- \n\n<div><\/div>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<div><\/div>\n\n --><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/e78b0742nd4-300x212.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>See the original article here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/ghanasoccernet.com\/2011\/03\/suarez-not-sorry-for-ghana-world-cup-handball\/\" title=\"Suarez Not Sorry For Ghana World Cup Handball\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Suarez Not Sorry For Ghana World Cup Handball<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Welcome to Ghanasoccernet.com, Ghana&#8217;s most authoritative football news website.
