Wolves’ Matheus Cunha restrained by own coaching team as he is shown red card after complete head loss at Bournemouth

MATHEUS CUNHA had to be held back by his coaching staff after seeing red for an “outrageous” attack on Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez.

The Wolves striker lashed out in the final minute of extra time in a dramatic FA Cup fifth-round tie.

Kerkez pulled the shirt of Cunha, who reacted by lashing out, pushing and then kicking his opponent – before appearing to HEADBUTT him.

Wolves’ dugout team were then forced to restrain their Brazilian star as he seemingly suffered a total loss of self-control.

Ex-England keeper Rob Green told the BBC: “Outrageous behaviour from Matheus Cunha.

“He is trying to remonstrate with the fourth officials. It will be a lengthy suspension, you can’t do that.”

Cunha has been linked with a big-money move, with Liverpool and Arsenal reportedly keen.

And one fan reckoned the “consequences of such a shameful sending-off could be “huge” for the 25-year-old.

He wrote: “I’m not thinking this season. (Arne) Slot had eyes on him, will he still go for such a hothead?”
