MARK LAWRENSON had an episode of Match of the Day to forget as he made an unfortunate blunder on Steven Pienaar’s name.
 
Mark Lawrenson drops clanger after calling Steven Pienaar ‘penis' on Match of the Day
Mark Lawrenson had a night to forget on Match of the Day
 
The 58-year-old was analysing Everton's 2-0 FA Cup victory over Dagenham and Redbridge, but made an embarrassing slip of the tongue when listing the players.
Lawrenson said: "They have got a really good footballing side, but the problem has been in the last three to four weeks is that they have got in front in games and not really killed the opposition off.
 
“[Phil] Jagielka’s back as we saw today, obviously [Kevin] Mirallas, penis, er Pienaar as well.”
Host Gabby Logan and fellow pundit Trevor Sinclair can both be seen holding in their laughter, while Lawrenson was a true pro and carried on like it never happened.
The pair took to Twitter after the cock-up, with Logan claiming she had to pinch herself and avoid eye contact with Lawro to continue the show.
To make matters worse, it wasn't even the former Liverpool man's first clanger of the day.
Lawro took part in the FA Cup special of Pointless earlier on, eliminating himself and Dan Walker from the BBC show after declaring US state Alaska as a country.
