It came as the boxer gave the England team a motivational speech in the dressing room.
His sweary words of encouragement forced Alex Scott to apologise to viewers at home, before she threw back to Dermot, 52, who was standing by on the pitch.

Man City enter a new era at Club World Cup and two arrivals hold the key
In December, Real Madrid won the inaugural Intercontinental Cup. The implications for Manchester City were indirect but it does mean that, on a technicality, they enter the Club World Cup as defending champions. An expanded competition can seem a new one: under the old format, the last final – officially, anyway, given Real's win over Pachuca came in a rebranded competition – was City's 4-0 walloping of Fluminense in Saudi Arabia. It was City's fifth trophy of 2023. It is not the only reason it feels like a different time. One of the goals came from Phil Foden, then on fire. Julian Alvarez bookended the scoring with a brace, but he now leads the line for Atletico Madrid. The silverware was lifted by Kyle Walker, but the captain isn't even part of the squad City are taking to the United States after spending the second half of the season on loan at AC Milan. Jack Grealish, who started against Fluminense, didn't make the plane this summer either. Whatever the competition is called, there was the sense that, 18 months ago, City were entitled to call themselves the world's best. Hindsight shows it was one of the last triumphs of a team; they won that season's Premier League but even men as perceptive as Pep Guardiola and Txiki Begiristain failed to notice the evidence of decline until it was too late. Watch every Fifa Club World Cup game free on DAZN. . Now they have some of the trappings of the global elite. They arrive in the United States with a manager, in Guardiola, some would deem the greatest ever, the reigning Ballon d'Or winner, in Rodri, and a striker with 318 goals for club and country at the age of 24, in Erling Haaland. But they look a long way from the world's best now. They are also the team who finished third in the Premier League and lost the FA Cup final to Crystal Palace, who only came 22nd in the Champions League group stage and, for the first time since 2012-13, failed to reach its last 16. They have lost 16 of their last 43 games. It is Manchester City, but not as much of the world knew them. So one scenario is that they travel several thousand miles to merely have the same problems on a different continent. Juventus, who beat them in the Champions League group, are their last opponents in the Club World Cup group. Real Madrid, who knocked them out of Europe, could do likewise in the global tournament; they represent a potential last-16 tie. History could repeat itself, this time in Florida. This time, however, the cast list would at least be different. City are not alone in that. It is one of the curiosities of the Club World Cup: the side who qualified for it are very different to the one that will compete in it. The group that Guardiola has taken across the Atlantic features neither Walker nor Grealish but does include eight players bought in 2025, four of them acquired in three days this week. Chair Khaldoon al-Mubarak admitted City were not 'aggressive' enough in the transfer market last summer. That criticism could not be levelled at them this year. They have spent almost £300m in 2025; more, if add-ons are triggered. They have been particularly purposeful in June. And so a first glimpse of Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Cherki and Rayan Ait-Nouri – City will hope the new third-choice goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli is only seen in the warm-up and on the bench – offers intrigue. Reijnders and Cherki, in particular, assume an importance in the shape of the new City, in the quest to forge a formidable new midfield. For different reasons, City approach the competition without both Kevin De Bruyne and Grealish, their greatest player gone permanently, their record buy exiled. January arrival Nico Gonzalez has had a stop-start City career but he was plunged into action in a side without Rodri. Now the scorer of the 2023 Champions League final winner could start for the first time since September. That combination of the new and the returning could mean Ilkay Gundogan, another of the talismanic figures of 2023, is rebranded as a reserve. So this might be the start of Guardiola's third City team. The first two attained greatness; the third will not get there yet but has to be more energetic than the ageing group who the Catalan felt lacked physicality. There is a different team off the field, too. Guardiola has been flanked before by his proteges, in Mikel Arteta and Enzo Maresca, and a mentor, in Juanma Lillo, in the dugout. Now, in a distinct shift, he has Jurgen Klopp's old sidekick: when Pep Lijnders took the RB Salzburg job last summer, he intended to be at the Club World Cup as a manager in his own right. But plans have changed, both his own and City's, after chastening setbacks. Lijnders has plenty of pedigree as a coach: he is a Club World Cup winner, too, from Liverpool's 2019 triumph. Pep and Pep may be the odd couple but there is a new look to City. Even if they defend their title, it will be the start of a different era, not a continuation of the old.

Opinion: Formula One needs people like Eddie Jordan - he'll be sorely missed
Formula One From team owner to pundit, Jordan's journey was unique. In the corporate Formula One paddock, his maverick personality stood out Skip 1 photos in the image carousel and continue reading In the ever evolving world of F1 – now a global juggernaut of speed and spotless PR – the loss of Eddie Jordan feels seismic. Not because he was still on the pitwall or publicly pulling strings in the paddock (although he was still absolutely doing that under the radar – note the Adrian Newey to Aston deal), but because voices like his are vanishing. Loud, honest, unpolished and unmistakably human, Eddie was the sport's living antidote to the hyper-managed, sponsor-sanitised travelling circus. Advertisement - Page continues below Eddie Jordan wasn't just a team boss. He was a true character and the best raconteur I have ever met. The kind of man who could spot talent a mile off – Michael Schumacher, anyone? – and still crack a joke with mechanics five minutes later. He ran his team like a rock band on tour: charismatic, chaotic and bursting with heart. His DNA permeated the ranks of the team, and does to this day in its current iteration – Aston Martin – where a handful of his loyal employees are still on its payroll. F1 is on a golden run, new fans pour in by the millions, but the flip side of that is big tech, big money and bigger image control have swept through like a desert sandstorm, polishing every surface. We are at risk of not telling the whole truth, for fear of upsetting the corporate bosses and social media mobs. You might like Eddie never hesitated. He said what he thought, not what he thought would trend well. He also had a strong sense of right and wrong. He once found out that a team boss had been rude to me, mistakenly thinking I had been the source of erroneous information about his team. Eddie steamed straight in there and demanded an immediate apology. Eddie could also be brash, unpredictable and occasionally wrong, but that's what made him real, and why we loved him. He reminded us that F1 isn't just about data and tyre deg, it is about people, egos, passion, risk, triumph and failure. He was perhaps at his most authentic when at home with his wife Marie, children and grandchildren. Advertisement - Page continues below Just this past Christmas he sent out a video Christmas card with them all singing, dancing and playing musical instruments – it was gorgeous. Notably Eddie was right at the back, letting his kids and grandkids take turns centre stage. As our sport soars to new exciting heights, let's not forget that characters like Eddie are irreplaceable. F1 will go on becoming glossier, grander and more compelling, but it will be just a little less mad and maverick without him. There will never be another Eddie Jordan – which is a huge loss when the sport needs characters like him more than ever. Thank you for subscribing to our newsletter.

The new Volkswagen Golf GTI Edition 50 is its fastest-ever car around the ‘Ring
Hot Hatch It's slam-dunked on the Golf R by over a second, thanks to an upgraded chassis, tyres and aero kit Skip 5 photos in the image carousel and continue reading Volkswagen is celebrating half a century of the Golf GTI next year with this legacy-surfing Edition 50 of the Mk8.5, which is now officially its fastest-ever car around the Nürburgring. The lap time (7m 46.13s) was over a second quicker than the current Golf R (7m 47.31s)... awks. And it was set by a near-production-ready version of the Edition 50 on its first and only attempt, due to poor weather conditions. Impressive. Advertisement - Page continues below Changes are being kept hush for now, but we do know a Performance Package will be offered, which brings improvements to the chassis and semi-slick Bridgestone Potenza tyres developed specifically for this car. Forged 19in lightweight alloys are supplied too, reducing unsprung and rotating mass - ideal for sharp cornering. According to VW test driver, Benny Leuchter, the Performance pack was a "decisive" factor in hitting that record time. You might like Other differences include extra attachments for the front bumper, a sleek extension to the trim above the lower grille and a sharper fin just ahead of it. The body kit gets a black finish for an angrier look, and the connecting light bar between the front lamps has changed from red to white. No proper rear images have been provided, though we can spot what appears to be a slightly extended wing back there. Advertisement - Page continues below Technical info is also being held back for now, but we're expecting a slight increase to the standard GTI's 261bhp/273lb ft from its front-biased 2.0-litre turbo-four. The Clubsport version itself gets a power bump to 296bhp, cutting three-tenths off the 0-62mph time to 5.6s. Plus, a suite of other mechanical changes like stiffer springs and dampers, lighter brakes and an Akrapovic exhaust. Because Akrapovic exhausts are necessary in every hot Golf driver's life. Expect the 50 Years to tread the lines closely here. More details are set to follow at the Nürburgring 24 Hours endurance race next week, but in the meantime, check out the video of the GTI Edition 50's run out at the Green Hell above.
