Mark Clattenburg demands FA make example of Aleksandar Mitrovic with brutal personal story

Former Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg has urged the FA to make an example of Fulham star Aleksandar Mitrovic after they charged him with violent conduct.

Mitrovic pushed referee Chris Kavanagh after he awarded Manchester United a penalty against the Cottagers in their FA Cup quarter-final on Sunday. The striker was immediately shown a straight red card by Kavanagh.

Willian joined the striker in taking an early bath as he was sent off for denying a goalscoring opportunity, with manager Marco Silva sent to the stands for his protests on the touchline. Fulham had been leading before that point but ultimately fell to a 3-1 defeat.
