John Abraham was spotted giving expert comments on football on Sony Six's live pre-game show 'Cafe Rio'.

The 41-year-old Bollywood actor, who's a football enthusiast, took to Twitter and shared his excitement asking fans to "grab their favorite jersey", and even posted a picture, where he's standing with ace players Peter Crouch and Mikael Silvestre, who were also part of the show, along with host Gaurav Kapoor.

Though the actor seemed happy to be the part of the show, the viewers didn't feel the same as several people posted on Twitter that the commentary really killed the mood and made them "sleepy".

Meanwhile, Brazil defeated Croatia 3-1 in the kick-off match of the World Cup which was held at Arena Corinthians, Sao Paulo.
