England advanced to the semi-finals of the European Championship after defeating Switzerland in a penalty shootout. According to British media reports, England football legend Gary Lineker, who was broadcasting the match, appeared to have used profanity while celebrating an England goal, causing the signal to be cut off.
In the match between England and Switzerland, England once again gave fans a “magical” game. It was only after Switzerland broke the deadlock that England woke up, with Saka equalizing and taking the game to a penalty shootout, eventually winning 5-4 to advance to the semi-finals.
Immediately after England’s victory, BBC showed footage of fans celebrating across the country, including a shot of Prince William, before cutting to the studio, including Lineker and fellow pundits. BBC aired the footage of Lineker, Richards, Lampard, and Ferdinand celebrating Saka’s equaliser.
It is worth noting that the broadcast was abruptly cut off while showing the celebrations of the England football legends. Richards was initially confused about the reason for the interruption. Lineker then hinted that BBC may have cut the broadcast to avoid airing his profane language.
This brief incident highlights the palpable excitement among the England football legends, particularly Lineker, following Saka’s equaliser.
