Viewers took to troll Tim Sherwood over his baffling commentary for Preston v QPR with Sky pundits in the studio also confused.
The former footballer and manager produced a classic moment calling for a spot kick to be awarded for the hosts, who are shooting the opposite way, leaving the Soccer Saturday panel rather amused.
The moment came just three minutes into the Championship clash, Dozzell ended up receiving a booking for a late challenge on Ben Woodburn.
It’s a penalty…but for who Tim Sherwood? 😂😂

Tim Sherwood: Oh looks like a penalty shout for Preston. Has to be a penalty. Dozzell just dives in. He toes it away. He hasn’t give it. Wait, oh he’s waiting on his… might be going back to it here. Looked like a penalty for Preston. It was a flick on. They’re trying to get the ball out. It’s a nailed on penalty. Ched Evans got his toe to it and Dozzell just takes him out. But I haven’t seen, I can’t see the referee at the moment, so I don’t know what he’s given.
Simon Thomas: “Didn’t he immediately give it. Is he giving it or not?
TS: He could well be booking it. He could well be booking it for a dive. He can’t be. Surely it can’t be a dive. No, yellow card penalty. It is a penalty.
ST: No? Clinton?
Clinton Morrison: I don’t think it is a penalty. He’s defending. He’s defending. It’s the other way around. He’s defending. Look, it’s a free kick.
Paul Merson bursts into laughter.
CM: It’s the other way around. He’s defending. Look he’s defending. It’s not a penalty. he preston guy was defending.
ST: It’s the rolls that have done it. It’s the dramatic rolls…
CM: It’s not a penalty…
ST: It’s definitely been given as a penalty, has it?
CM: No, it’s a free kick.
ST: When you shout so loud you just can’t hear what the heck is going on. Never a penalty.
PM: Rangers are kicking that way.
Iroegbunam came very close to breaking the deadlock when his 25-yard effort curled away from the diving Freddie Woodman, who was no doubt relieved to see the strike come back off his left-hand post.
Finally the game saw a goal, coming in the 58th minute, with Queens Park Rangers, under new head coach Neil Critchley, taking the lead.
A corner from the right being flicked towards goal by Dunne and, after hitting the underside of the bar, the ball bounced over the line.
Ben Woodburn then had a superb chance to get an equaliser within a few minutes, a clever flick from Evans opened up some space, however his effort was kept out by Dieng at close quarters.
Seven minutes from time saw Woodman come up with a huge save to tip Iroegbunam’s strike – which looked to be sneaking under the bar – over the top.
Preston came so close to snatching a point when, with two minutes of normal time remaining, Fernández sent the ball to Potts at the far post, who struck beautifully on the volley, only for it to go just inches wide.
Johnson also tried his luck late in stoppage time, but his effort was too high and the points went to the visitors.
Preston line-up: Woodman; Storey, Lindsay, Cunningham (O’Neill, 85); Potts (Diaby, 90), Whiteman, Ledson (Cross-Adair, 68), Fernández; Johnson, Woodburn; Evans. Subs not used: Cornell, Bauer, Slater, Mawene.
QPR line-up: Dieng; Laird, Dunne, Clarke-Salter, Paal; Field, Dozzell (Dickie, 90+1), Iroegbunam; Adomah, Dykes, Willock (Shodipo, 78). Subs not used: Archer, Kakay, Thomas, Richards, Armstrong.
