Fans can’t stop watching Shaka Hislop’s hilarious gaffe live on air that leaves stunned TV host with head in his hands
FANS can’t stop watching a hilarious clip of Shaka Hislop’s gaffe live on air.
The brilliant incident occurred at the start of the season as Hislop previewed the upcoming LaLiga campaign.
The former goalkeeper, 54, was presented with a new football by his co-host as the cameras rolled.
Coated in a protective shell, the ball was tossed to Hislop by his pal.
But despite being a former Premier League stopper, Hislop hilariously stood and watched as the ball went past him before hitting the ground.
The protective shell smashed loudly into numerous pieces as the ball rolled out of the studio.
And Hislop, still appearing relaxed, casually moved to pick it up before carrying on with the segment.
His co-host was affected in a completely different way though, holding his hands to his head while surveying the damage.
Fans enjoyed the hilarious clip when it originally occurred, and have been pushing its resurgence after Hislop celebrated his birthday this week.
One declared: “This clip of Shaka Hislop may only be five seconds long but it’s absolutely perfect.”

In 1998 he joined West Ham before moving to Portsmouth in 2002.
Hislop rejoined the Hammers three years later before ending his career with FC Dallas in 2007.
