Fulham boss insists Leno didn't push ball boy

Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno appeared to push a ball boy during his team’s 3-0 loss at Bournemouth in the Premier League on Tuesday, but his manager insisted that was not the case.

The incident took place in the second-half, when in a hurry to get the ball from the ball boy, Leno appeared to push him. Fulham were losing 2-0 at the time, and Leno had already received a yellow card.

The 31-year-old Germany international later apologised to the ball boy but was still jeered by Bournemouth fans for the rest of the match.
