Nuno: Boly tackle a clear red card

The defender was sent off in the first half as Wolves lost 3-0 away to Manchester City on Monday, but his manager had no complaints

Nuno Espirito Santo felt Willy Boly deserved to be sent off during Wolves' 3-0 Premier League defeat away to Manchester City.

Gabriel Jesus had already put the champions in front at the Etihad Stadium on Monday when Boly was dismissed by referee Craig Pawson in the 19th minute.

Boly appeared to win the ball as he made a forceful challenge on Bernardo Silva, but the defender caught the City midfielder's ankle with his studs on the follow-through.
