Sky News reporter's fan interview after Wales loss to Iran went hilariously wrong, it's car-crash television

Wales lost to Iran and one Sky News reporter tried to get some insight from the fans, but it went completely wrong from his first question

Two Wales fans managed to turn a Sky News interview into a piece of comedy gold after their team's loss to Iran on Friday.

Wales put themselves in huge danger of going out of the World Cup after they succumbed to two stoppage-time goals from Iran at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium.

Having only drawn with USA in their first game, Rob Page's side are now relying on England beating USA and then they themselves defeating the Three Lions in order to get through to the World Cup knockout stages.

All of that news would have understandably left fans of the side feeling a little down in the dumps, especially for anyone who had made the trip to the Middle East.

That was never more evident than the two Wales fans who Sky News attempted to interview, only to be given short shrifts for differing reasons, which you can see in the video below.

There was little doubt as to which side scored the two goals but the journalist made a very costly error at the beginning of the interview.

Approaching a Welsh fan, he asked about the man's view on the 'win,' which the fan instantly corrected him on and didn't look like he'd answer any more questions after that.

So, understandably the reporter moved on to the next fan, stood behind, in order to actually get a supporter's view on the World Cup game they'd just seen.

The next member of the crowd was willing to answer the question but he had a very short and simple answer, just saying "sh*t."

Of course, there was the usual apology for the language on live TV, but let's be honest, anyone who watched the match knows there was no other way to describe it.

Wales started with Kieffer Moore and Gareth Bale up front, with the former replaced by Dan James after his impressive performance off the bench vs USA.

However, they were unable to get much in the way of attacking situations and they couldn't get any control in the middle of the field either.

Iran were full of energy and were by far the better side, having been well beaten by England in their opening game, but they couldn't break the deadlock.

Things changed in the 86th minute when Wayne Hennessey came running out of his area, taking out an Iranian forward and getting sent off.

Carlos Queiroz's side really made that extra man count, grabbing two goals in injury time to secure their first points of the tournament.

Rouzbeh Cheshmi grabbed the first, smashing the ball into the goal from the edge of the area, before Ramin Rezaeian chipped in a beautifully over sub goalkeeper Danny Ward.

Wales must now beat England on Tuesday and hope the other results go in their favour, starting with Gareth Southgate's side beating USA on Friday evening.
