ITV presenter Seema Jaswal apologised to Everton star Andros Townsend while on the air.
The Blues forward is currently working as a pundit in Qatar for the tournament. He has been sidelined with a serious knee injury since March, with no clear timeframe set yet on his return to action.
While Everton are not playing, Townsend is over in the Middle East to work as a pundit for the World Cup. His latest stint saw him commentating on the group stage match between Poland and Saudi Arabia.
