Inter Miami striker Luis Suárez apologized for his behavior following Sunday's Leagues Cup final loss against the Seattle Sounders , which saw him spit on a member of the Sounders staff as he was held back by teammates.
"First, I want to congratulate the Seattle Sounders for their Leagues Cup triumph," Suárez wrote on Instagram on Thursday. "But most of all, I want to apologize for my behavior when the game ended.

"I made a mistake and sincerely apologize," he wrote. "It's not the image I want to give in front of my family, that suffers because of my mistakes, in front of my club, that also doesn't deserve seeing themse
