Luis Suárez told Fifa's Disciplinary Committee that he didn't bite the Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini deliberately, claiming he lost balance and accidentally hit his face against the player.
Suarez wrote in his submitted defence to Fifa, "In no way did it happen how you have described, as a bite or intent to bite."
"After the impact, I lost my balance, making my body unstable and falling on top of my opponent.
"At that moment I hit my face against the player leaving a small bruise on my cheek and a strong pain in my teeth."
Uruguay have announced that they will appeal against his subsequent ban.
