Fans tuning into TNT Sport 2 were left perplexed after Gianluigi Donnarumma's sit down interview was followed by the build up from St James' Park.

After quickly realising their mistake, a statement popped up on fans' screens that read: "We apologise for the technical difficulties. We return to Man City vs Napoli on TNT 2 shortly."

While after the issue was resolved, some 15 minutes on, presenter Reshmin Chowdhury said: "Hello welcome back everybody, we did have to leave you for a short while due to technical issues but we're back and so are they."
