QPR defender Jack Robinson facing FA charge after alleged punch on Wolves star Diogo Jota
The Rs ace could be hit with a misconduct charge after footage recorded by a fan in the stands emerged online
QPR defender Jack Robinson is sweating over a possible FA misconduct charge after it was alleged he threw a punch at Wolves striker Diogo Jota on Saturday.
The incident is alleged to have happened during Wolves’ 2-1 win at Molineux.
It was originally missed by the match officials.
However, video footage posted by raging Wolves fans on social media has led to the authorities to investigate the matter.
It shows Robinson confront Jota before there appears to be contact before the Wolves player falls to the ground.
Referee Geoff Eltringham was heading up the park and missed the incident as did his assistant referees.
But incensed home fans not only spotted it, one caught the moment on film and made it public.
Now the FA has confirmed it has launched an investigation into the flashpoint incident.

And Robinson could be hauled before the disciplinary committee if there is sufficient evidence to suggest he has a case to answer.
A spokesman for the FA said: "We are aware of a reported incident during the Wolves v QPR match on Saturday and are investigating the matter."
