A Fulham supporter has become an internet sensation after making the most of his trip to Manchester City over the weekend.
Despite his team's 3-2 Premier League loss at the Etihad Stadium, the spirited chap managed to "score" by securing a woman's phone number, despite fan segregation barriers and stewards separating them. The only catch was that they were supporting completely different teams, which could be a dealbreaker for some!
The man seemed unconcerned about how The Cottagers were doing, however, as he was clearly distracted by the female City fan in a viral video that has since gone viral on social media. he is seen standing by the stewards separating the two sets of fans, holding up his phone while the woman mouths her contact details for him to note down.

After footage of their exchange was shared on TikTok, it left football fans eager to know what happened next. "Haha anymore update to come on this? Top quality," one viewer commented.
"Good on him," another added, while a third called the man a "hero". The clip also attracted attention on X, where it was widely shared, and had half-a-million views in less than 48 hours on TikTok.
"On the pull at the footy and he scores," one person joked. "City might have won the game but the Fulham fan is the winner," another quipped.
A third praised the man's efforts: "And why not, you only live once and youth disappears way too quickly." While a fourth cheered: "At least one Fulham fan had a victory today. Go on son!"
