Wolves forward Cunha fined & banned for extra game

Matheus Cunha has scored 15 goals for Wolves this season

Forward Matheus Cunha has been banned for an extra game and fined £50,000 for his actions at the end of Wolverhampton Wanderers FA Cup defeat at Bournemouth.

The Brazil striker admitted a charge of acting in an improper manner after he was sent off for clashing with Cherries defender Milos Kerkez in the final minute of extra time.

The 25-year-old lashed out at the Hungary left-back three times and had to be escorted down the tunnel after he was sent off.

Cunhas straight red card for violent conduct meant he was already suspended for three games and will now miss a fourth - the Premier League match at Ipswich Town on 5 April.

He will now next be available for the visit of Tottenham Hotspur on 13 April.

Cunha was suspended for two games in January after clashing with a member of Ipswichs security and grabbing his glasses from his face following the visitors 2-1 win at Molineux in December.
