Rowdy fan accidentally flashes on live TV ahead of Euro 2024 opener

A TV reporter was left distraught after his live segment ahead of the Euro 2024 opener was derailed by a Scottish fan wearing a kilt.

A kilt-wearing Scotland fan left a German broadcaster flustered after they had a major wardrobe malfunction on live TV.

The Tartan Army turned out in force in Germany to cheer on Scotland for their Euro 2024 campaign, even drinking airport bars dry during their pilgrimage.

Germany ended up prevailing 5-1 in the Group A match in the early hours on Saturday morning (AEST).

But ahead of the tournament curtain-raiser against Germany, Scotland fans headed to Munich to soak up the atmosphere before the game, including heroic fan Craig Ferguson who walked all the way from Hampden to raise male mental health awareness.

But, while covering the build-up, one unsuspecting German reporter saw more of the Scottish fans than he bargained for.

The fans lined up for a chance to be shown on live TV.

A fan decides to lift his friend’s kilt up during the segment.

While reporting live on fans in town, a bunch of kilt-wearing Scotland, with beers in hand, set about hijacking his segment.

Jumping up and down and cheering, they first planted a massive Scotland sticker on the reporter’s head and chest.

Then, the camera panned to one supporter who was bizarrely wearing a Germany shirt with his kilt.

And, unfortunately for German TV viewers, it was at that moment that a fellow fan decided to lift up his kilt to revealed his manhood underneath.

The reporter couldn’t believe what he just witnessed.

The camera quickly zoomed back to the reporter as he covered his eyes from the fans with his hands, all while trying to hold in his laughter.

Reacting to the clip, one fan joked: “Proper Mannschaft.”

Another said: “Haha gotta love the Scots.”

#A third added: “Proper fans having a laugh.”

While a one said: “The Scottish Mannschaft is in full effect here.”

Scotland will next face Switzerland and Hungary with hopes of progressing out of Group A and into the knockout stages.
