Aleksandar Mitrovic replies to fan after penalty miss lost him £855 bet

Sunday proved to be a day to forget for Aleksandar Mitrovic as his missed penalty saw Fulham dumped out of the FA Cup by Oldham.

The Serbian striker saw his spot kick saved by Daniel Iversen with just over five minutes left to play.

And then with only two minutes left on the clock Callum Long headed home an unlikely winner to send the League Two side into the hat for the fourth-round.

Mitrovic's mood won't have been helped when a football fan moaned that his missed effort had lost him an £855 bet.

But the 24-year-old did not seem to care one bit, and simply replied 'no problem mate' alongside a handful of emojis including a thumbs-up, a fist bump and a hand clap.

The fan, assuming that Mitrovic had got the wrong end of the stick, decided to elaborate: 'meant lost out on £855'.

To which the Fulham striker replied in dead-pan style: 'Yes I know'.

Though Fulham were denied passage beyond the third-round of the FA Cup, Claudio Ranieri's side can now concentrate all their efforts on Premier League survival.

They currently sit 19th in the table, four points shy of 17th placed Cardiff.
