Aleksandar Mitrovic's loan spell with Fulham last season was a goal-laden one and the Serbian striker showed that he hadn't lost any of his goalscoring touch as he drew the 'Cottagers' level against Tottenham on Saturday.

Slavisa Jokanovic's side went 1-0 down in the first half at Wembley as Lucas Moura opened the scoring with a classy finish.

However, they needn't have worried as their burly frontman drew them level eight minutes after the interval.

Joe Bryan's cross from the left was kept alive by Ryan Sessegnon at the far post and Mitrovic, having thrown himself at the initial delivery, was in the right place at the right time to nod into the back of the net from inside the six-yard box.

The joy on the 23-year-old's face was clear for all to see as he wheeled away in celebration.
