Sky Sports reporter tries to interview random Huddersfield fan who he thinks is their new manager

Well, that was embarrassing.

An incredibly cringe-worthy moment happened during Sky Sports’ covering of Manchester City’s visit to Huddersfield of Sunday afternoon.

This week Huddersfield terminated manager David Wagner’s contract, as they sat rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table.

The bookie’s favourite to replace him is Bourissia Dortmund’s second team coach, Jan Siewert. Sky Sports thought they had spotted Siewert in the crowd, so they sent out a reporter to grab him.

Only it wasn’t. It was just some random fan.
