Wolves forward Matheus Cunha had his ban for confronting an Ipswich security guard reduced because he offered to buy him new glasses.

The Brazilian was charged by the FA on December 16 after a skirmish following his side’s 2-1 defeat by Ipswich at Molineux, in which Cunha grabbed the man’s glasses.

The 25-year-old was given a two-match ban by an independent commission on New Year’s Eve but the panel’s findings, published yesterday, revealed it would have been three games had he not offered to replace the security guard’s spectacles.
