Video: A Champions League ad for a UK Bookmaker went hilariously wrong last night

Fail

Conor Heneghan

There’s something missing and we can’t quite put our finger on it.

Actually, that’s a lie because it’s very easy to pick out what went wrong with ad for Coral Bookmakers that went out during coverage of Manchester United’s Champions League clash with FC Bruges last night.

If you watch enough football, you see these in-game betting ads all the time, when odds for say, Wayne Rooney to get the next goal, will appear as part of a piece of footage that’s been filmed well in advance.

Pity for Coral then, that they forgot one pretty major detail last night.

Someone was asleep when they created this "great tip" 😀
