Man Utd fans fume ‘I give up’ after conceding identical FA Cup goal to Fulham as Mitrovic’s strike in 2023
MAN UTD fans have been left fuming with their side for conceding the EXACT same goal against the same team AGAIN.
The Red Devils were in action against Fulham at Old Trafford on Sunday in the FA Cup, which was a repeat of a tie from 2023.
And it was the visitors who took the lead in the first half, when Calvin Bassey headed home at the back post from an Andreas Pereira corner.
The goal sent the away fans into a rapture of excitement, but for United fans it was a case of seeing double.
Eerily, the goal was similar to one they conceded against the Cottagers in that previous cup tie scored by Aleksandar Mitrovic.
Just like Bassey’s goal, the ball was swung in by Pereira, it eluded a sea of red defenders in the box, before Mitrovic arrived at the back post to score, albeit with a half volley instead of a header.
Still, Man Utd fans were furious that history repeated itself and they took to X to vent their anger.
One, sharing a video of Mitrovic’s goal, wrote: “No, this is not the goal United just conceded to Fulham. This is Mitrovic TWO YEARS AGO.”
A second posted: “Funniest team ever man.”
While a third added: “Tears they scored the EXACT SAME goal vs us 2 years ago.”
Bassey’s goal was cancelled out by Bruno Fernandes’ strike in the 71st minute.
The Portuguese midfielder’s left-footed low strike beat Bernd Leno.
It meant the game went into extra-time, with the scores level are 90 minutes.
Extra time is currently ongoing.
