Soccer Aid has been thrown into chaos after Tyson Fury swore live on air to shocked viewers at home.

However, presenters Alex Scott and Dermot O’Leary were left red-faced after Tyson Fury dropped the F-bomb live on air.

It came as the boxer gave the England team a motivational speech in the dressing room.

During his words of encouragement, he told the lads: ‘We are f***ing Spartans.’

Despite a prompt apology from Dermot and Alex, viewers have blasted ITV for allowing it to air in the first place

It forced Alex Scott to apologise to viewers at home, before she threw back to Dermot, 52, who was standing by on the pitch.

Alex, 40, told fans: ‘We do apologise for the swearing. It’s Tyson we don’t know what’s going to happen.’ 

While some fans took the explicit word light heartedly, others have blasted ITV for allowing it to air. 

Taking to social media, one viewer said: ‘Tyson Fury swearing before half past 6 on a Sunday evening absolute gold.’

A second posted: ‘Tyson Fury just casually dropping the F bomb just before 6:30.’

While a third fumed: ‘Seriously? Watching #SoccerAid at 6.30pm and Tyson Fury drops the ‘F’ word. Come on for goodness sake, sort this out this is actually disgraceful for a charitable event.’
