During a Second League football match between Kyzylzhar and Altai, a curious incident occurred: children 'hijacked' the live broadcast, loudly shouting obscenities, reports infohub.kz.
The Telegram channel Halyqstan reported that children freely approached the sound equipment and clearly shouted an offensive rhyme with profanity during the live broadcast on the YouTube channel. Viewers of the match quickly recorded the fragment, and within a few hours, the video with children's swearing spread across sports communities and Telegram channels.
A correspondent for NUR.KZ managed to get a comment from the Directorate for Holding Competitions among Professional Clubs. There, it was reported that an internal investigation was conducted regarding the spread of the video. The investigation established that during the halftime break, children gained access to one of the microphones located around the field perimeter, used for transmitting ambient sound, and their conversation with profanity went on air.
The Directorate noted that it is difficult to ensure constant control over every microphone, but as a result of the investigation, additional measures will be taken to prevent such situations in future broadcasts. "We apologize to viewers for this episode and thank you for your understanding," the Directorate added.
