Huw Johns supposedly did the 1966 WC Final for ITV but the only commentary I can find is by Brian Moore
EDIT: Unless they sounded very similar back in 1966, which is possible. For the fourth goal (11:00) the commentator initially mistakes Hurst for Peters, which is maybe why ITV don't show it much.

There's an apocryphal story of ITV cutting to an advert but that's a spoof done in 2010, apparently.
