PREMIER LEAGUE cult hero Kevin Lisbie had to look away when his son stepped up to take a penalty in the FA Cup.
The former striker was working for the BBC as a pundit for non-league Cray Valley Paper Mills’ FA Cup clash with his old club Charlton.
And it was a special night for the 45-year-old who wasn’t just there in support of his former employers, but also his son.
Kyrell Lisbie was on the pitch for Cray Valley PM with the teen signing for the semi-pro side this summer.
And in the 44th minute he had a chance to level the scores from 12 yards after eighth tier side were awarded a penalty.
But although it was a HUGE moment for Lisbie Jr and his side, his dad Kevin couldn’t watch on.

The former Addicks attacker was too nervous and turned away as the 19-year-old stepped up for his penalty.
But to his relief, Kyrell calmly dispatched his spot kick past Sam Walker to tie the game up.
However things went down hill from there with League One Charlton going on to dominate the second half and ruin the non-league fairytale.
The match ended in a 6-1 loss for Cray Valley after they had miraculously defied the odds by forcing a replay with a 1-1 draw earlier in November.

But the 116 league places and five divisions that separated the two sides ultimately proved too high of a mountain to climb.
It will have still been a night to remember for the Lisbie family with Kyrell scoring against his dad’s old side.
Kevin made 113 Premier League appearances for Charlton scoring 14 goals and providing three assists in the process.
