Eagle-eyed viewers spotted an 'incredible' error during Match of the Day's highlights of Aston Villa vs. Ipswich.

Villa and Ipswich played out a 1-1 draw in their Premier League fixture last Saturday.

Ollie Watkins cancelled out Liam Delap's opener as The Tractor Boys were reduced to 10 men following the dismissal of Axel Tuanzebe, who was shown a red card by match referee Robert Jones just before the break.

Tuanzebe picked up his first yellow card in the 28th minute when he fouled Morgan Rogers.

The incident involving the Ipswich defender and the Villa star on Match of the Day has since been called out by fans as they spotted an error.

After Tuanzebe was booked, the camera panned to a concerned-looking Unai Emery prowling on the touchline, with Tyrone Mings sitting behind him on the bench.

But fans have pointed out that Mings was already on the pitch when Tuanzebe was booked for his foul on Rogers.

Mings had entered the fray in the 16th minute after replacing Boubacar Kamara.



People on social media hit out at the editing of last Saturday's Match of the Day.

One X user wrote: "Shocking editing," while another added: "Yeah I was so confused!!"

A third, however, argued: "It’s a small genuine mistake that has no difference to the overall show. One that is spliced, edited & put out to air normally within 6 hours of the final whistle of the 3pm KO’s."

A fourth said: "I notice this sort of thing a lot on the EFL highlights, a team will have a shot or get a corner, then they cut to the manager looking in the opposite direction."

Another commented: "I thought I was just really tired when I was watching MOTD. I'm glad to see I wasn't going insane."
