A BBC Radio commentator was left in an awkward position when he misidentified an X-rated chant on Sunday.

Manchester United progressed to the fifth round of the FA Cup with a thrilling 4-2 victory over League Two Newport at Rodney Parade, with the underdogs pegging back their visitors having gone 2-0 down inside the first 15 minutes.

When Will Evans scored to make it 2-2 at the start of the second half, Newport tails were up, but their dreams were shattered when Antony and then Rasmus Hojlund ensured last year's finalists went through.
