excerpt from GOAL.com,
It wasn't the most eventful of Merseyside derbies, but ITV failed to show the English television audience the key moments of the FA Cup fourth round replay between Everton and Liverpool. Lucas Leiva's sending off was missed by the cameras initially, before viewers were subjected to advertising towards the end of extra time, forcing them to miss Dan Gosling's last-gasp winner.

SPORTS COUCH POTATO —
Thanks to our friend "getin2thegame" for getting in touch via BallHype and sending us the YouTube link to a clip of a monumental broadcasting snafu that had many British soccer fans — and a very unhappy network executive — searching for answers. Viewers of ITV in the south of England were on the edge of their seats as Everton and Liverpool were locked in a scoreless FA Cup match Wednesday night after 118 minutes of play.
