The technical error – caused by an issue with microphones – lasted almost three minutes.

When everything resumed as normal, Fletcher explained: “Apologies for the early technical problems here.

“We can’t quite get the microphones to work inside the stadium. German technology and all that. Expected it to be better.

“Apologies sent though from Leipzig.”

Some fans actually seemed to enjoy the unintentional break from commentary.

One person took to social media to write: “That 2 minutes where TNT lost the commentary feed in the Liverpool game was absolutely bliss.”

Another said: “There’s no commentary on TNT at all?”

A third wrote: “TNT apologising for the loss of commentary. Don’t apologise, it’s great!”

While a fourth commented: “Wish TNT would just cut the commentary for the Liverpool game. It’s not working and it’s much more enjoyable without anyway.”

Reds striker Darwin Nunez broke the deadlock at the half-hour mark with a tap-in.
