'I am the man who shot Bambi live on television': Geoff Shreeves recalls 'awful' moment he told Chelsea Defender Branislav Ivanovic that he would miss the Champions League final during post match interview that went viral

Geoff Shreeves referred to himself as the 'man who shot Bambi live on television' when he recalled the awkward interview he conducted with Branislav Ivanovic in 2012.

The Sky Sports reporter interviewed Ivanovic following Chelsea's thrilling 3-2 aggregate win over Barcelona in their 2011-2012 Champions League semi-final tie at the Nou Camp.

Ivanovic was delighted with the result during his post match interview but fell flat when he realised he would be banned for the final after picking up a yellow card during their clash with Barcelona.
