The footballer spoke to reporters about his shenanigans, stating he hoped his wife hadn’t seen it (but let’s be honest she probably did):

Now while the team may have won against Libertad in a close 3-2 score, that doesn’t have seemed to excuse Bobadilla from his actions. Asociacion Paraguaya de Futbol (Paraguayan FA) has now launched an investigation into the incident which could leave Bobadilla banned.
Member of the APF Raul Prono revealed:
We have begun official proceedings, as we didn't receive any written complaints or anything from the referee.More under this adMore under this ad
He continued to detail that media reports were what tipped off the APF:
We got information from the internet, newspapers, and tapes, and they led us to this inquiry. We have notified Raul Bobadilla, and he has three days in which to appeal.
If found in breach of the rules Bobadilla could be slapped with a ban.
But, it wouldn’t be the first time this year a player has been banned as a French footballer earned himself a five year boot for biting another player’s penis earlier this year.

The groin munching took place when two players started fighting and a player from the Terville team stepped in to break it up. However, this didn’t go down too well with Soetrich as a yet another player took it upon himself to swoop in and bite his opposition's johnson.

The events took place after the match, in the stadium car park. There was an altercation, an escalation and things got worse.More under this adMore under this ad
He continued to explain that the penis biting incident was one of the more scandalous ones of the few:
It's quite rare to have sanctions of several years, there are less than 10 per year. The case was a bit saucy, but...there must have been some nasty tension, so the smiles on the disciplinary committee quickly faded.
