Matheus Cunha Charged with Misconduct Following Wolves' Loss to Ipswich
Wolves striker Matheus Cunha has been charged with misconduct by the Football Association after the club’s 2-1 defeat to Ipswich on Saturday.
The Brazilian forward, who scored Wolves' equaliser at Molineux, is accused of "acting in an improper manner" during a confrontation between the two teams at full-time.
Post-match footage appears to show Cunha elbowing an Ipswich security team member in the back of the head before snatching the man’s glasses.
The 25-year-old has until 19 December to respond to the charge.
The incident followed Wolves' 11th Premier League defeat of the season, after which the club dismissed manager Gary O’Neil and his coaching staff.
Wolves Close to Appointing Pereira as New Boss
Cunha has been a key player for Wolves this season, scoring eight goals in 16 league appearances, but he could now face a suspension for his role in the altercation.
Ipswich secured their victory through Jack Taylor’s last-minute header. Wolves defender Rayan Ait-Nouri received a second yellow card in the tunnel after the match.
Wolves currently sit 19th in the Premier League, five points adrift of safety. They face a crucial match against 17th-placed Leicester City on Sunday at 14:00 GMT.
