With the anthem blaring over the tannoy, the TV camera panned across the faces of the home side.

The girl, quickly realising she was being broadcast to the world, decided to make her moment a memorable one.

She appeared to swear at the camera by sticking up two fingers to the lens before having the cheek to stick out her tongue.

Supporters at home took to social media to share their amusement on the incident.
