BT Sport were forced to apologise after showing an offensive banner which was unfurled by Celtic fans during their Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk.
Celtic supporters displayed a message which read: 'F*** the crown' for their side's 1-1 draw in Warsaw. The BT Sport cameras had panned to the away end and accidentally showed the full banner during their coverage. The broadcaster apologised as viewers quickly picked up on the gaff, six days on from the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, who died at Balmoral aged 96 last Thursday.
Football was postponed across the United Kingdom last weekend, with tributes taking place during games this week. But ahead of Celtic's draw, which was played in the Polish capital rather than Shakhtar's home of Ukraine due to the ongoing war, there was no minute's silence and the Champions League anthem was played over the sound system.
