Fans spot moment Alan Shearer ‘smirks’ at BBC camera on live TV after Scotland are knocked out of Euro 2024 by Hungary

FANS reckon they’ve spotted Alan Shearer smirking at Scotland’s heart-breaking exit from Euro 2024.

Shearer was caught grinning after Hungary bagged a 100th minute winner to beat the Scots 1-0 and leave them rock bottom of Group A.

Steve Clarke’s side appeared on course for a goalless draw – which would have given them a slim chance of qualifying to the knockout rounds.

Scotland were in with a chance of being one of the four best third-placed teams to qualify for the knockout round.

But Kevin Csoboth’s breakaway goal with virtually the last kick of the match saw Hungary snatch victory and the Scots sent home from Germany.

Scottish football legends David Moyes and Rachel Corsie joined Shearer for pundit duties on the BBC.

But the Newcastle icon has his own history with the Tartan Army.

After he took great pleasure in scoring the opening goal of England’s famous 2-0 victory over Scotland in Euro 96.

Just the live post-match coverage began, the camera pans the panel as Shearer seemingly smirks directly into the lens – before catching and composing himself.

And footie fans on X were quick to react to his comical blunder.

One account posted a now viral clip and wrote: “Alan Shearer can’t hide a little smirk .”

A second responded: “How is he doing that on live TV .”

While another said: “Some man Shearer is! This will be a meme.”

A fourth added: “The laugh is worse than Scotland’s performance!”

But some Scottish fans didn’t let him get away with it, as one wrote: “Don’t worry this will be England next week .”

But it’s not all bad as Shearer did express his sympathy for Scotland after they were denied a penalty in the 78 minute.

Stuart Armstrong was bundled over 10 minutes after Hungary’s Barnabas Varga was stretchered off following a collision with Scottish No1 Angus Gunn.

In fact Shearer felt it was a stonewall spot-kick and was surprised VAR did not intervene.

The former England striker said: “I thought the referee gave a terrible decision when Scotland should have had a penalty.

‘Clear penalty for me. I think the assistant had a great view. It’s a terrible challenge. He gets caught and takes him out. His right knee on to his calf.”
