Bournemouth boss Gary O’Neil accused Crystal Palace star Joachim Andersen of “punching” Jefferson Lerma after the Colombian suffered a broken nose.
The two sides faced off on Saturday afternoon with both aiming to climb further up the Premier League table after securing safety over the last few weeks. Roy Hodgson's men eventually ran out victors thanks to two brilliant strikes from Eberechi Eze.
Whilst Cherries head coach O’Neil was left frustrated by the manner of his side’s defeat, he was also furious at an incident involving midfielder Lerma and Palace defender Andersen. As the hosts attempted to defend a ball into their box, it appeared as though the Dane’s hand made contact with the Bournemouth star’s face.
