Bournemouth manager Gary O’Neil expressed sympathy for referee Stuart Attwell following his controversial role in the team’s 1-0 victory over Wolves. Attwell, who has faced scrutiny for his involvement in previous VAR decisions, was involved in two key incidents during the match. He overturned an on-field decision to disallow Wolves’ equalizer due to a foul by Matheus Cunha on Justin Kluivert, which was upheld upon VAR review. Later, he sent off Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez for a foul on Matt Doherty, a decision that Bournemouth will appeal. O’Neil refrained from commenting on the VAR decisions but said he had no issues with Attwell being appointed to the game. Wolves boss Andoni Iraola agreed with the disallowed goal but believed Kerkez’s red card was unwarranted.
