Nick Woltemade had his cap pulled over his eyes as he left the Stadium of Light.
But there was no way the towering Newcastle United forward - all 6ft 6in of him - was going to slip out of the stadium unnoticed.
Not after his own goal settled the Wear-Tyne derby a couple of months ago.
Woltemade's team-mates were booed by the Sunderland supporters gathered outside as they climbed on to the team bus - but Woltemade was applauded, cheered and even serenaded with chants of "Hero! Hero! Hero!" after inadvertently heading Newcastle's bitter rivals to a 1-0 victory back in December.
