Sky Sports were forced to apologise after a fan was caught on broadcast telling Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno that he has a ‘nice a**e’.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The incident occurred during Tottenham’s 2-0 win over Fulham on Monday night, where James Maddison and Son Heung-Min\u00a0struck to pick up three points for the hosts.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ange Postecoglou’s side now sit top of the Premier League table after the win and can extend their lead to five points with a win at Crystal Palace on Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, there was a moment in the match that those in attendance would’ve missed but, luckily, it was picked up Sky’s cameras.<\/p>\n
During the second-half, one supporter could be heard shouting at Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno – who also spent four years at rivals Arsenal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Microphones picked up the fan saying: ‘Nice a**e Leno!’ while the goalkeeper prepared to take a goal-kick, which later went viral on X, formerly known as Twitter.<\/p>\n
Sky’s commentators quickly apologised for the comment, which was heard clearly during the broadcast.\u00a0<\/p>\n
One fan on X was quick to spot the incident and posted: ‘No way have Sky just had to apologise because a fan shouted “Nice a**e Leno”.’<\/p>\n
The incident also came prior to\u00a0Sky Sports apologising to James Maddison after a technical error during his post-match interview.<\/p>\n
As Maddison prepared to begin his interview with Sky’s Dave Jones, Jamie Carragher and Gary O’Neil, he quickly flagged that he could hear the interview of Marco Silva.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After a moment of looking rather perplexed, Carragher began laughing and asked the midfielder: ‘What’s he saying?’<\/p>\n
Jokingly, Maddison replied: ‘He was saying Maddison’s goal was excellent I think.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
The response from the Tottenham playmaker sparked laughter amongst the live studio, before the issue was resolved and Maddison spoke on the win.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
The former Leicester star scored Spurs’ second of the game – after Son Heung-Min’s opener – to help wrap up the win for Ange Postecoglou’s side.\u00a0<\/p>\n

During the same broadcast, Carragher lauded Maddison for being ‘influential’ in Tottenham’s success so far this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When pressed on that claim by Sky’s David Jones, he said:\u00a0‘I think he’s been that influential in changing Spurs,’ Carragher said to Sky Sports<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n ‘And the credit has to go to the manager [Postecoglou], it’s been his philosophy and his way of playing. But he’s [Maddison] has played a big part in changing that.\u00a0<\/p>\n ‘He’s come in and took the No 10 shirt, Harry Kane’s shirt. Possibly the greatest player to ever play for Tottenham. I think at one stage he had the captain’s armband on.’<\/p>\n It’s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\nIT’S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n
