A TV channel in Serbia has gone viral after a bizarre on-air blunder.
Nacionalna Televizija Happy – best known as Happy – was meant to show highlights from Serbia’s win over Andorra on Tuesday.

Aleksandar Mitrovic hit a hat-trick as the Serbians ran out comfortable 3-0 winners in the World Cup qualifier.
But fans watching in Serbia were treated to an unexpected view on Happy’s post-match news bulletin.
The channel appeared to broadcast footage from a VIDEO GAME rather than the match itself.
Happy’s news anchor can be heard describing the goals from Mitrovic at the Dubočica Stadium.
Footage shown on screen however looked to be taken from Konami’s eFootball.
The gameplay was shown on screen for more than 20 seconds before the segment ended.
Anchors on the channel did not reference the blunder, per Informer.
Serbia and Andorra are both in Group K alongside England, Latvia and Albania.

Ex-Fulham striker Mitrovic’s three goals were his fourth international hat-trick.
The 30-year-old has netted 68 goals in 79 games for Al Hilal since joining the Saudi side in 2023.
Mitrovic has been linked with a return to the Prem this summer.
Manchester United, Everton and West Ham have been linked with a move for the former Newcastle forward.
Reports suggest it would take £40million to prize him back from Al Hilal.
