Sky Sports forced to apologise before Man Utd's Premier League win over Wolves

X-rated language was used live on air
Sky Sports were forced to issue an apology after a presenter used foul language before Manchester United's 1-0 win over Wolves on Monday.
Melissa Reddy was discussing the approach of Andre Onana prior to the Cameroon international's debut outing.
The former Inter Milan star is a vocal presence and was seen barking at Harry Maguire during a recent pre-season match against German giants Borussia Dortmund.
And Reddy, speaking live on air, said Onana had been 'b********g' his defenders during his time at the club so far.

However, Sky presenter Vicky Gommersall then apologised on the behalf of the broadcaster.
She said: "Just going to apologise to anyone if they were offended by the use of your language there."
Onana was a player in the spotlight before the game - and it was a similar story following the contest at Old Trafford.
The former Inter Milan star, who joined United as a replacement for David De Gea earlier this summer, made his first competitive appearance for his new side.
Onana impressed, making several saves as the Red Devils battled their way to victory.
However, he was lucky to avoid giving away a late penalty following a grapple with Sasa Kalajdzic inside the box.
The incident was checked by VAR but, in the end, the United star was given the benefit of the doubt.
Onana was praised by manager Erik ten Hag after the game, with the Dutchman labelling the 27-year-old's performance as 'good'.
"[Onana] had very good saves, was very calm, very good debut," stated the 53-year-old.
"After the opponent touched the ball he dived in so it was the judgement of the officials and lucky for us no penalty. I think you can debate it but I think no penalty."
Wolves manager Gary O'Neil, however, was left incensed by the decision not to give his side a late spot-kick.
"I thought live it was a penalty," he said. "It looked like the keeper nearly took our forward's head off.
"I think it is a foul, you go for the ball and clatter the player that hard, it is a penalty.
"I thought he was going over to the screen at first but unfortunately he booked me and not Onana.
"I understand the rules [of sticking with the on field decisions as much as possible], but I don't fully accept it.
"I have spoken to the officials about it already. It is a difficult decision for the on-field official, we can't just leave it.
"If we are all saying it then he needs to have a look.
"In the end, we can't just focus on that decision.
"To come to Old Trafford and have the most shots of any side since 2005 and dominate after just four days of work is exceptional.
"The lads deserved more tonight."
