Woods stepped in for Pougatch as attention turned to Belgium vs Romania in the day’s final match.

Ahead of the changeover, Woods could be seen walking into the studio live on air.

As well as the presenter change, a fresh look to the pundits also followed as Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou joined the panel.

Fans loved the presenter substitution and were quick to react on social media.

One viewer wrote: “Can we have another slick transition from Laura Woods?”

Another also added: “Slick transition from Woods. Incredible.”

Woods was involved in a similar transition with Pougatch earlier in the tournament.

Back on Monday, the pair swapped over following Belgium’s shock loss to Slovakia.
