WOLVERHAMPTON, England — A soccer manager in England has been slammed by a rival coach for celebrating in the face of a 13-year-old ball boy after a late winning goal in a thrilling FA Cup quarterfinal match. Coventry scored in the 10th minute of stoppage time to secure a 3-2 victory over Wolverhampton.

Robins offered an unprompted apology for his behavior in his post-match news conference. Wolves manager Gary O'Neil said Robins' behavior was "disgusting."
