FOOTBALL fans have been left in stitches after a commentator started singing a Shakira music earlier than Cape Verde have been eliminated from the Africa Cup of Nations.
South Africa booked their place in the semi-finals for the first time in 24 years with a penalty shoot-out victory on Saturday night time after a goalless 120 minutes.
Keeper Ronwen Williams proved to be the hero as he saved four of Cape Verde's five spot kicks with a exceptional set of stops – together with one from Manchester United flop Bebe.
And it was earlier than Patrick Andrade's decisive miss that the excellent piece of Qatar-based beIN Sports commentary happened.
Bizarrely, broadcaster Mohamed Barakat broke out in music and commenced performing "Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)" by Shakira.
The clip went viral on social media following South Africa's victory as followers reacted to the unique commentary.
One stated: "I really like how unhinged Arabic commentary is. Feels real and related moderately that whatever s*** they spew in EPL."
Another added: "That is Afcon heritage."
A third replied: "Extra of this please, commentators!"
While a fourth responded: "Truthfully, the perfect thing about BeIN is the Arabic commentators. They're absolutely GOAT'ed lol.
