Fulham goalkeeper Leno pushed a caddie in his team's 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth and offered to apologise to him.
The 31-year-old former Arsenal goalkeeper rushed to catch the ball in the closing stages of the game when they were 2-0 down. When the boy walked over to hand the ball to Leno, he grabbed it and pushed the boy away, with the Fulham bench believing it was a delaying tactic by the Bournemouth caddies. This led Bournemouth fans to rampantly mock the Fulham player, who had already received a yellow card. But this behavior escaped the punishment of the referee.
After a security guard checked on the caddy's condition, eventually Leno walked over and apologized to him. The boy replied, "It's okay, I'm fine." ”
Bournemouth won 3-0 thanks to goals from Justin Kluivert, Solanke and Sinisterra.
Under Ilora, the Cherries have continued their good run as they move into the top half of the Premier League table.
Fulham, meanwhile, are in 13th place, just six points away from relegation.
