Luis Suarez made his return to international football last night, and scored the equaliser in the second half, as Uruguay grabbed a 2-2 draw with Brazil in the South American qualification for the World Cup.
Suarez of course has been banned for almost a full two years after his infamous bite on Giorgio Chiellini at the last World cup in Brazil.
The ex-Liverpool striker captained his side for his first international appearance in 640 days, but it was a moment with a former Reds team-mate that had most people talking.
Philippe Coutinho was a substitute for Brazil last night, and before kick-off, he and Suarez shared an emotional embrace.

Both players enjoyed an incredible relationship as Liverpool surged to within inches of the titles in 2014, with Suarez leaving for Barcelona that summer.
Coutinho was also a second half sub in the game, which provided this picture of both players going at it full tilt.
