Fans were left confused

Fans watching Southampton’s game against Newcastle United on Sky Sports were left confused as the commentary momentarily disappeared.

                                            <p>Newcastle were leading 1-0 at the time as the in-form Miguel Almiron continued his excellent goalscoring spree after a composed finish following a bursting run into the box.</p><blockquote></p>Death, taxes, Miguel Almiron scoring for Newcastle  pic.twitter.com/WhChDwWKEs

But with moments of the first-half left the commentary appeared to go briefly, leaving those watching more than confused.

“Wtf is going on with Sky sports?” asked one fan.

                        <p>Sky Sports presenter Dave Jones then began to speak and inform the viewers that the broadcaster had lost the commentary team and began describing the events of the game briefly before returning to the original team

A win for Newcastle would help to consolidate their place in the top four and move into third place – four points clear of fifth placed Manchester United.

Despite taking a well-deserved lead on the South Coast their first-half ended on a somewhat sour note as captain Kieran Trippier appeared to pull up with a hamstring injury.

England boss Gareth Southgate is in attendance at St Mary’s Stadium and will be hoping that another one of his defensive options hasn’t suffered an injury with the World Cup only a matter of weeks away.
