Former Manchester United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger was caught speaking into his coffee cup instead of a microphone while working as a Euro 2024 pundit for German broadcaster ARD. The 39-year-old made the blunder after joking about his drink with presenter Esther Sedlaczek.

After the joke, Schweinsteiger accidentally began speaking into the cup, prompting Sedlaczek to quickly point out his mistake. He then swapped back to the microphone. Fans reacted humorously on social media, with one noting, “What makes this even funnier is how much he talked about coffee beforehand.” Another added, “We’ve all been there,” while a third joked, “Bad performance right from the start.” In the match Schweinsteiger was covering, Germany was held to a 1-1 draw by Switzerland in the final Group A match.

Dan Ndoye scored for Switzerland in the 26th minute, temporarily putting them on top. However, Niclas Fullkrug equalized in the 92nd minute to secure a point for Germany, who sealed the top spot in the group. Switzerland finished second, two points behind. Julian Nagelsmann’s side could now face England in the knockouts if the Three Lions fail to beat Slovenia on Tuesday.
