Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts, who was shown a red card after just eight minutes of action in the fifth-round showdown in south London.

Was trying to clear a dangerous through ball – but kicke Mateta in the head with his follow through – with the Palace star badly hurt and given oxygen as he was down on the ground getting treatment for nine minutes.

Mateta, 27, was eventually taken off in the 15th minute of the match and taken to hospital as Millwall fans in the away section at Selhurst Park sang ‘let him die’ towards the Frenchman, who was replace by Eddie Nketiah.

‘Millwall fans are not endearing themselves to anyone with their chant about Mateta, commentator Jonathan Pearce said before Palace went on to win the match 3-1. ‘The club could be revisite about that.’

It emerge after the game that the chants of ‘let him die’ towards Mateta – who is conscious and ‘doing well’ – do not breach Football Association (FA) regulations, meaning that Millwall are likely to escape punishment.

Posting on Instagram after the match, Mateta said: ‘Thank you all for your kind messages. I’m doing well. I hope to be back very soon. And stronger than ever. Well done guys for the great job today. I love you. JP.’

Steve Parish was left absolutely furious in a half-time interview with the over the Mateta incident, confirming the player had taken straight to hospital, as the Palace chairman and co-owner said: ‘So far, we know he’s got a bad gash behind his ear and a head injury.

‘He’s at the hospital and we hope for the best. There’s a lot of emotion in football but we need to talk to that challenge. In all the time I’ve watche football I’ve never seen a challenge like it. I looke to see how old the goalkeeper is and he’s 30-years old.

That’s the most reckless challenge on a football pitch I think I’ve ever seen. He needs to have a long hard look at himself that lad because he’s endangering a fellow professional, maybe even his life.’

Former England defender Matt Upson told the ‘We wish Mateta all the best and we hope he is okay.’

Ex-Brighton striker Glenn Murray adde: ‘Roberts catches Mateta’s temple with his studs.’
