Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has apologised for his behaviour that led to him being sent off during the club’s FA Cup quarter-final defeat to Manchester United.

Mitrovic himself had given Fulham the lead at Old Trafford and the Cottagers were just 20 minutes plus stoppage time away from a trip to Wembley for the last four.

But then it all spectacularly collapsed for them. Willian was sent off for a deliberate handball on the goal-line, which eventually led to a Manchester United penalty after a VAR review because the initial ruling from referee Chris Kavanagh was a corner.
