wolves cunha gets ban cut after offering guard new glasses

An offer from Wolves forward Matheus Cunha to purchase new glasses for a security guard after a post-match altercation led an independent disciplinary panel to reduce his suspension from three matches to two.

The Brazilian received a two-match ban after clashing with Ipswichs security staff members following his team's 2-1 defeat against their relegation rivals at Molineux on December 14.

According to the panels report, Cunha elbowed a man and "knocked his glasses from his face, causing them to break."

The report stated that the 'starting point" should be a three-match suspension to reflect the seriousness of the offence.

However, it noted: "The commission agreed that Cunhas acceptance of the charge, his prompt personal apology, the offer to cover the cost of new glasses, and his clean disciplinary history, were mitigating factors."
