Matheus Cunha: Wolves striker charged with misconduct by FA

Matheus Cunha has been charged with misconduct by the Football Association following Wolves’ 2-1 defeat by Ipswich on Saturday.

The Brazil striker, who scored Wolves’ equaliser at Molineux, “allegedly acted in an improper manner” during a confrontation between the two sides at the final whistle.

Post-match footage appeared to show Cunha elbowing a member of Ipswich’s security team in the back of the head before snatching the glasses off the man’s face.

The 25-year-old has until 19 December to respond to the charge.

In the wake of the defeat – which was Wolves’ 11th in the Premier League this season – the club sacked manager Gary O’Neil and his backroom staff.
