Dan McNamara airs frustration after questionable officiating contributes to Wolves Women's defeat at Ipswich

The early weeks of the WSL 2 season have demonstrated a clear difference between home and away performances as Wolves Women find themselves still looking for their first points on the road

Dan McNamara has expressed his disappointment with the officiating after Wolves Women lost 3-1 away at Ipswich Town on Sunday.

The Suffolk club’s second goal certainly caused debate. Maria Boswell’s cross was a difficult one for goalkeeper Emily Orman to deal with, backpeddling onto her line. It looked like Orman had managed to keep the ball out of her goal, but the officials thought otherwise and awarded to the hosts, which frustrated McNamara.

“The conversations are that the officials guessed that the ball had gone in and they guessed wrong, that’s the harsh reality of it,” he said. “I don’t expect them to guess at this level but they did and thankfully Ipswich go 3-1 with ten minutes to go because if the game was decided on a guess I would have been very frustrated.
