ITV has apologised to viewers after a Histon footballer was shown naked during FA cup coverage yesterday.

Cameras were allowed inside the football team's dressing room following their victory over Leeds United in the second round.

During the third round draw a camera shot of the changing room revealed one man nude, reports The Sun.

"I couldn't believe it," said one viewer. "When Histon's name was pulled out of the hat they went live to see the players' reaction to the third round draw.

"One was stood there with absolutely nothing on - it was hilarious. Not at all what you expect to see on telly on a Sunday afternoon."

The broadcaster also said sorry after foul language from fans was overheard during the match.

"We apologise to viewers for this incident which was out of our control," said a spokesperson.
