Football fans were baffled as to why Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo was sent off for his celebrations against Leicester when the same referee did not reprimand Jurgen Klopp for a similar incident.<\/p>\n
Wolves scored a last minute winner on Saturday to beat the Foxes 4-3 at Molineux, which prompted the manager to sprint down the touchline and join the celebrations following Diogo Jota’s winner.<\/p>\n

Following the conclusion of the Wolves match, here is a selection of what some on Twitter had to say about Espirito Santo’s red card.<\/p>\n
