The amount of times commentators have missed things that are on the screen in front of them this World Cup is so frustrating. Questioning obvious decisions that everyone at home can see clearly was correct, maybe I’m just a jealous bastard but their job is a cushy number lets be honest yet they manage to make it look difficult.

Back in the day, anytime Kevin Keegan was commentating. Usually 2 or 3 crackers per match!

What about Danny Murphy saying quote ‘I think De Bruyne should pass to himself ‘ or the other classic from the last England game about the right sided wing back who plays as a left sided wing back Ashley Young takes ball off a Tunisian player in the centre of midfield passes it back to goal keeper commentator ‘And that’s why Ashley Young is in the team’

Watching Australia v Ireland. Camera pans to Irish fans and the Aussie Co-commentator says
"Fiddle-eee-dee Fiddlee-dee - Potato"
In Scotland there'd be questions in parliament and calls for resignation.

Don’t tell those coming in the final result of that fantastic match, but let’s just have another look at Italy’s winning goal.
Same game, commentator says something like"South Korea are unable to breakdown a well organised defense." Just as Son hits a beauty into the top corner.

Absolute classic
"Unthinkable".Paul McStay to take the penalty. It's inconceivable the captain could miss...
5 mins onwards for his miss. A magical moment

I'm sure there was a newsreader/sports reporter who was describing a Dundee United home European game from "Tanna-dee-chay" like it was in Italy or something

Any commentator calling a team regularly humiliated in Europe 'invincibles'.

A couple of weeks ago, the BBC Commentator in the Mexico v Scotland match said the game was at 7,000 feet above sea level - only 1,000 or so feet less than Everest!
Everest is 8,484 METRES above see level - 29,030 feet!!
No-one corrected him and he seemed to get away with it!!
