FANS blasted ITV’s ‘crash crash crash’ coverage of England’s tense Euro 2020 semi-final win over Denmark.
Armchair critics fumed at delays, poor pictures and technical problems online before and during the 2-1 Wembley triumph after extra time – following similar issues earlier in the tournament.
One supporter labelled it the “crash crash crash” service while others insisted ITV should lose its right to show Euros’ matches.
And as social media voiced its frustration, this tweet summed up that view: “They are awful and shouldn’t be allowed to show any games.
“Lagging by 1 minute. May as well just listen to the radio.”
Another said: “I think this tournament has taught us ITV should never be allowed near football ever again.”
The ITV Hub came under even fiercer criticism from supporters during France’s epic victory over Switzerland.
Pictures froze at a third-minute corner before viewers missed Hans Seferovic’s shock opener for the Swiss before their eventual shootout triumph.
This time it was England followers who were increasingly agitated.

And when pre-match problem continued after kick-off, one fan posted: “ITV hub keeps crashing and I have to watch adverts every time I reload it, didn’t have these problems with iPlayer.”
And backing that up was this tweet: “Their App is useless stuck showing adverts.”
But all those complaints faded as Harry Kane sealed a comeback route to Sunday’s final with Italy, tucking home a rebound winner after Kasper Schmeichel parried the skipper’s own penalty.
