Aleksandar Mitrovic was convicted of mocking five-time Ballon D'or Winner Cristiano Ronaldo with a Coca-Cola Can after the Serbia player's goal blocked Portugal from reaching for the 2022 World Cup.
If there's one thing Ronaldo dislikes more than failing, it's fizzy drinks. The Man Utd forward has already stated that he despises the fact that his kid takes them.
Earlier this summer, the Portugal star made headlines for withdrawing 2 bottles of Coca-Cola during Euro 2020 instead of allowing it to be in front of him during a press briefing.

Coca-Cola was reportedly affected by a $5.2 billion drop in stock price, but Aleksandar Mitrovic may have gotten their revenge.
The Serbia striker hit a late winner against Portugal on Sunday night to secure his country's status in next winter's World Cup in Qatar, Ronaldo's team now facing a play-off.
The Coke can and all! Classic Mitrovic 😅 https://t.co/r2x3zcMoAw

Following the game, Aleksandar Mitrovic was seen celebrating his victory, and supporters believe he was mocking the five-time Ballon d'Or winner with a drinks can.
Seeing the guy who has put an end to his hopes of appearing in a fifth World Cup finals, which could still happen, will only serve to enrage Ronaldo even more.
The 36-year-old was seen talking with his national team boss Fernando Santos after the game, and he apparently wasn't satisfied with the man who led the side to Euro 2016 victory.

Furthermore, a group of Serbian fans participated in on the iconic SIUUUU celebration performed by United's players.
It wasn't the most ideal Sunday night for the men's international top goalscorer, but at least he can return to Old Trafford now, where matters are considerably better.
