BBC One MISS Chelsea’s horror own goal and then nearly miss another seconds later as fans blast shambles

FURIOUS football fans have blasted the BBC after they somehow MISSED Leicester City’s first goal vs Chelsea.

Chelsea were taking on the Foxes in the FA Cup quarter-final for a place at Wembley in the semi-final.

BBC’s coverage of Chelsea v Leicester in the FA Cup missed Axel Disasi’s own goal

Goals from Marc Cucurella and Cole Palmer had given Mauricio Pochettino’s side a 2-0 lead before half-time.

However, just six minutes after the restart Blues defender Axel Disasi had a nightmare as he tried to pass the ball back to goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.

Under pressure from a Leicester star his pass back was lifted far too high in the air for Sanchez to collect and arced into the Chelsea net for a stunning own goal.

It had come moments after a Chelsea attack on the Leicester goal as the broadcaster showed a replay of the game up the other end.

Viewers at home only caught a glimpse of the goal as the ball nestled into the net.

And as replays were shown of the goal, Chelsea then went up the other end once again with the broadcast once again getting caught out.

However, BBC just got their camera back on the game in time for Nicolas Jackson’s shot to flash harmlessly wide of the post.

Taking to social media, one viewer said: “Miss a goal and then almost miss another goal because of obsession with multiple replays.”

A second said: “Who is in charge of this Chelsea broadcast at BBC?! Just missed the goal cos they were playing a replay.”

A third said: “BBC has just managed to miss a goal by showing a replay. That is just embarrassing production work.”

Another wrote: “One of the great own goals and the BBC missed it.”

Disasi’s unfortunate own goal also saw him get both barrels from the travelling support, with chants of “shoot” being heard from Leicester fans everytime he touched the ball thereafter.
