After the game, Wolverhampton Wanderers' Matheus Cunha clashed with the opposing team's staff and was raised to be investigated by the English Football Association (FA).
Wolverhampton lost 1-2 to Ipswich Town in the 16th round of the English Premier League (EPL) at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England, at 12 a.m. on the 15th (Korea time).
It was a showdown between two teams that are in the relegation zone. They were in a three-game losing streak, but Wolverhampton lost at home to Ipswich and lost to the Ipswich club for the fourth time in a row. After escaping from three consecutive losses, Ipswich are 18th with two wins, six draws and eight losses with 12 points, while Wolverhampton is 19th with two wins, three draws and 11 losses with nine points.
Matt Doherty scored an own goal to Ipswich in the 15th minute of the first half. Wolverhampton balanced the scoring by Cunha in the 27th minute of the second half. However, Jack Taylor scored a header in the extra time of the second half to give Ipswich a victory.
Wolverhampton suffered a painful defeat at home. However, a bigger problem arose. Ryan Aitnuri was sent off at the end of the game due to accumulated warnings, and Cunha also reportedly collided with a staff member of Ipswich after the game.
"In the video circulated on social media (SNS), Cunha was seen colliding with a member of Ipswich's security team and stealing his glasses," British media outlet Mirror said. "The FA will decide whether to investigate after confirming whether referee Simon Hooper will include the incident in the match report."
Mike Dean, former EPL referee in charge, told Sky Sports of the U.K. that Cunha is one of the most important players for Wolverhampton. After checking the video again after the game, he elbowed a member of the Ipswich staff on the head, and then took off the spectacles and threw them. In my opinion, the FA will likely punish him.
