ITV fans have taken to social media to express their outrage over the network's coverage of the World Cup, with many demanding that the channel never broadcast the tournament again. The controversy erupted during Monday's match between Egypt and Belgium, held at the Seattle stadium, which featured stars like Mo Salah and Romelu Lukaku.

As the teams returned from halftime, a commentator referred to the break as 'the first quarter,' a term typically used in American football or basketball, not soccer. This error did not sit well with viewers, who quickly voiced their displeasure on X/Twitter.
One fan wrote: 'So @ITVSport referring to it as “the first quarter” means they should never be allowed to broadcast another football match ever again.' Another agreed, stating: 'ITV have always been bad at football coverage.'
