Richard Keys blasts Chris Kavanagh for ‘shocking’ mistake in Wolves vs Man City

The Old Gold’s run without three points now stands at 11 league games, and Gary O’Neil’s quest for a victory continues.

At Molineux, it was very close to earning a valuable point against Man City, with goals from Josko Gvardiol and Jorgen Strand Larsen in the first half appearing to be decisive.

John Stones scored the late goal under dubious circumstances, but the champs actually secured the victory with seconds remaining.

Chris Kavanagh under fire for actions in Wolves vs Man City

Because Bernardo Silva was thought to have obstructed play by stepping in front of Jose Sa, Chris Kavanagh declared Stones’ injury-time winner offside.

After VAR encouraged the referee to reassess the goal, Kavanagh’s decision was overruled and the late winner was granted.

Although it wasn’t the only dubious decision made that afternoon, the result at Molineux was disheartening, and the call was much contested in the aftermath.

Richard Keys analyzed the drama that transpired on match day eight and voiced his displeasure with Kavanagh’s performance as the referee for the Wolves vs. City match.

The presenter first clarified that the City midfielder’s interference with Sa, not Silva’s offside, was the reason for the goal’s failure.

“City’s winner also caused a lot of controversy. First of all, Silva wasn’t offside, but it wasn’t the offense that needed to be investigated. Sa’s ability to reach the ball is obviously hampered by Silva.

Keys continued by criticizing Kavanagh for his “shocking decision” in the lead-up to City’s game-winning goal.

In the 93rd minute, as Wolves advance on City’s goal, there is a clear foul. In order to bring Guedes down, Nunes fouls him, tackles him from behind, and captures him.
