RIO DE JANEIRO — Luis Suarez issued an apology to Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini for biting him during a World Cup match and vowed Monday never to do it again. “I deeply regret what occurred,” Suarez said in a statement posted on Twitter. “I apologize to Giorgio Chiellini and the entire football family. ... I vow to the public that there will never again be another incident like (this).” Suarez had originally denied wrongdoing in a written response to FIFA, and had been staunchly defended by teammates and Uruguayan officials. Chiellini responded on Twitter within minutes, accepting the apology. “It's all forgotten,” the Italian wrote on Twitter. “I hope FIFA will reduce your suspension.”— AP
