Peter Drury shares day in life of football commentator at Carabao Cup final

Peter Drury is probably football’s most loved commentator right now.

The 54-year-old Brit is hugely popular with a global audience thanks to his genuine passion for football combined with his beautiful use of the English language.

Drury is often described as a poet and has produced many classic lines during his 30-plus years in commentary.

Whenever Drury is on commentary duty for a big Premier League or Champions League match, he always delivers some gold.

But what does a typical match day look like for the respected commentator?

Well, Drury filmed a day in his life, courtesy of Bleacher Report, around Sunday’s Carabao Cup final between Liverpool and Chelsea.

We see the incredible amount of research that he did prior to the game with a folder of handwritten notes.

He then makes his way to Wembley – after eventually remembering his car keys! – before taking his place in the gantry.

Drury then makes his way home after another day of vintage commentary before relaxing with a glass of red wine in the evening.
