Football fans have been left furious after ITV Hub crashed in the opening minutes of France’s Euro 2020 match against Switzerland. Online viewers missed Haris Seferovic’s opening goal, with their screens frozen on Switzerland taking a corner in the fourth minute.
ITV’s coverage of the tournament has been widely praised, but the broadcaster’s credit in the bank took a hit on Monday night.
After a brilliant 5-3 win for Spain over Croatia, fans tuned in to watch the second last-16 tie at 8pm.
But they were not treated to Switzerland’s shock opening goal, because their screens were stuck on the Swiss left-back Ricardo Rodriguez preparing to take a corner three minutes and 23 second into the match.
That meant Seferovic’s textbook header from eight yards following a run and cross from Steven Zuber was missed by thousands, who then took to Twitter to voice their displeasure.
“This game is so exciting. ITV hub letting me watch this corner for 10 minutes in a row,” one fan wrote.
“I’ve heard of time wasting but Ricardo Rodriguez taking 10 minutes to take a corner in the 3rd minute is taking the piss. Cheers ITV hub,” said another.
“Rumour has it, switzerland are still taking the corner over on the itv hub,” wrote one.
