The Netherlands late penalty against Mexico which sent them through to the 2014 World Cup finals is one that still gripes Mexico supporters, but one fan in particular was more upset than others and let the Dutch FA know of his unhappiness.

For 392 consecutive days the supporter using the Twitter handle Josesomor26 has tweeted "no era penal" ("it wasn't a penalty") to the Dutch FA and Fifa accounts about the incident on 29 June 2014.

1 año, 23 días, @KNVB @FIFAcom @miseleccionmx no era penal.

The injury-time spot-kick was won by Arjen Robben and scored by Klaas-Jan Huntelaar to give the Dutch a 2-1 victory over Mexico. Bayern Munich winger Robben later admitted he had dived during the game, although not for the penalty.

But Mexico captain Rafael Marquez, who fouled Robben, said at the time: "I spoke with Robben after the match and he told me that it was not a penalty."

Now, after more than a year of being tweeted "no era penal", the Dutch FA have responded to Josesomor26 with...

¡Felicidades @Josesomor26! #erapenal pic.twitter.com/lV821FAOJV

Persistence truly does pay off.
