The FA are currently awaiting referee Chris Kavanagh's report but it's understood that as Nuno was sent off he may be in line for a further punishment from the governing body.

A fine or a possible touchline ban would be the most likely penalties should more action be taken.

Nuno said of his infringement, when he ran onto the field by the corner flag to celebrate with Diogo Jota: "There is no explanation.

"After all the situations in the game, to finish the game like that brings tremendous happiness for everyone in Molineux. I'm no exception.

"The referee explained to me what happened. It was clear, and it was a good decision.

"You are not allowed to go out of your technical area, even to celebrate.

"It's a very difficult moment, especially as the game was up and down.

"It is difficult to contain your emotions. It is the law. It has happened before with other managers."
