Brazil great Ronaldo believes Luis Suarez biting an opponent was terrible for football at a World Cup of "wonderful surprises."

After the Uruguay forward's nine-match, four-month ban was announced Thursday, Ronaldo said football must be used to benefit the world.

Speaking through a translator, Ronaldo says "people have to be held responsible and accountable for what they do in the game" and that "those that do not follow this have to be punished."
