Wolves' Matheus Cunha Faces FA Charge After Bournemouth Red Card

Big news coming out of Wolverhampton Wanderers—Matheus Cunha has been hit with a charge from the FA following his dramatic red card against Bournemouth in the FA Cup. This is a massive talking point, especially given Wolves' current fight to stay in the Premier League.

So, here’s what happened. In the final minute of extra time, Cunha completely lost his cool, lashing out at Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez—not once, not twice, but three times! Kicks, shoves, and even an attempted headbutt—he really went all in. Referee Sam Barrott had no choice but to show him a straight red card. And Cunha wasn’t exactly graceful about it either—he had to be physically pushed down the tunnel after refusing to leave the pitch.

Now, the FA has stepped in, charging him with “acting in an improper manner.” He’s already set to miss three crucial Premier League games—against Everton, Southampton, and West Ham. But if the FA extends his ban, he could also be sidelined for Wolves' vital clash with Ipswich on April 5. That match could be season-defining, given that Wolves are just five points above the relegation zone.

This isn’t the first time Cunha has found himself in hot water. Back in December, after a heated match against Ipswich, he was suspended for two games and fined £80,000 for an altercation with a security guard. That history of disciplinary issues could influence how harshly the FA comes down on him this time.

Wolves fans must be fuming right now. Cunha has been their top scorer this season, netting 15 goals across all competitions. Losing him at such a critical moment in their relegation battle is a major blow.

So, the big question—how will Wolves cope without their star man? Will the FA add more games to his ban? And most importantly, can Wolves survive the season without their most dangerous attacking threat? Let’s see how this all unfolds!
