Sky Sports were forced to apologise after losing commentary during the first half of Fulham vs Arsenal on Sunday.
Arsenal opened the scoring when Gabriel Magalhaes headed in an inswinging corner, but viewers did not have commentary for the crucial moment, with Sky experiencing technical problems. Presenter Dave Jones had to step in and talk over the action after the broadcaster lost connection to the lead commentator and co-commentator Alan Smith.
Fans were quick to joke that Sky Sports had gone silent as a show of solidarity with Gary Lineker, who has been suspended by the BBC over his tweets. "Sky Sports showing solidarity with the MOTD team," one fan wrote on Twitter.
