Sky Sports Host Confuses Players Live On Air: How It Happened.
According to The Sun: SKY SPORTS presenter Katharina Kleinfeldt experienced a blunder live on air after Freiburg's 4:1 victory over Bremen.
During a live interview after the match, Kleinfeldt mistakenly congratulated the wrong player from the controversial team - Bremen's captain Marco Friedl, after exchanging jerseys.
'I play for Werder Bremen,' Friedl corrected Kleinfeldt when she told him 'today we won 4:1.'
The awkward situation was caught on camera as Friedl struggled to contain his laughter. Kleinfeldt realized her mistake, apologized, and acknowledged her fault for the confusion.

Despite the error, Kleinfeldt admitted her fault and hoped that Friedl would eventually see the funny side of this confusion.
Shortly after the incident, Kleinfeldt returned to television, co-hosting a show on Sport1, where she continued to fulfill her duties alongside Florian König.
