LUIS SUAREZ is in hot water after appearing to launch a foul-mouthed tirade against a linesman during a game.
The Barcelona star led the line against Borussia Monchengladbach in their Champions League clash on Wednesday.
But Suarez was far from pleased when a decision went in the opposition’s favour during Barca’s 2-1 comeback win.
Spanish TV footage appears to show Suarez sarcastically applauding the linesman after Gladbach received a thrown-in during the first half.
It’s alleged Suarez then cursed at the Slovenian official, shouting: “Your mother’s c***, you clown!”
The ex-Liverpool star received a swift telling-off from ref Damir Skomina but managed to avoid receiving a card for his actions.
