FA to look into alleged Podence spit against Forest

Published on: 01 April 2023

The Football Association is looking into a spitting allegation against Wolves forward Daniel Podence at Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Forest's Brennan Johnson appeared to suggest Portuguese midfielder Podence spat at him during the 1-1 draw.

Video assistant referee Neil Swarbrick checked the incident but did not tell referee Chris Kavanagh to take action.

"I've seen it back and I'm not going to add any fuel to the fire," said Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper.

"There's pictures and videos, so you have to trust the authorities to deal with it."

Podence scored a late equaliser, his sixth league goal of the season, as Wolves earned a late draw at Forest.
