FRANK LAMPARD reacted furiously as a taunting supporter tried to take a selfie after Coventry’s last-gasp play-off agony.
Sunderland defender Dan Ballard headed a 122nd-minute equalizer as a 1-1 home draw sent the Black Cats to Wembley for the Championship p/o final with Sheffield United.
And as a batch of supporters streamed onto the pitch at the Stadium of Light, Sky Blues chief Lampard was caught in the middle.
The grim-faced Chelsea legend responded agitatedly when a grinning, bare-topped fan approached him.
The male supporter was holding a phone high and appeared to be attempting to take a photo.
Lampard rebuffed him, then turned away and was able to make his way off.
One viewer shared a clip of the unfortunate incident on social media – and hit out at the fan’s antics.
He wrote: “Not sure trying to get a selfie with a manager that’s literally just lost a play-off semi final, in injury time of EXTRA time, is the smartest move… Keep it together super Frank Lampard!”
Another posted: The cheek of this Sunderland fan trying to get a selfie with Frank Lampard after that last gasp winner…
A third blasted: “No way bro.”

The ugly exchange on the turf came just as Lampard was rueing the most heartbreaking of semi-final defeats.
Trailing 2-1 from the first leg, Coventry’s high-energy tactics edged much of the return at the Stadium of Light.
Ephron Mason-Clark deservedly struck on 76 minutes to take the tie into extra time.
And it was deep into stoppage time during that extra half-hour that Ballard soared to nod home off the underside of the bar.
That put Sunderland through to a £200million shootout with the Blades on May 24 for a place in the Premier League.
