No again! Viewers of Love Island were left “cringing” during Tuesday’s episode after the girls used an “immature” soccer analogy to talk about Tanya Manhenga’s intimate night with her partner.
Talking to the girls on the terrace, Tanya explained, “Last night, Shaq and I basically had a… let’s call it a soccer warm-up.”
Olivia asked, ‘Did both players warm up?’
“No, just one,” Tanya replied when Lana asked her if she was “ready to start the game.”
“I’m not ready to start the game…but I like how it looks from where I’m standing, how the field looks from where I’m standing,” Tanya joked.

One viewer wrote: “It annoys me that they always code talk about sexual acts in #loveisland if you’re confident enough to do them on TV you should be confident enough to talk about it right?”
“These sexual analogies are jarring, you are all adults, seriously,” added another.
A third wrote: ‘This immature sex talk on love island is too embarrassing ‘football warm up’ what the hell?’

Elsewhere, Zara on the show approached Tanya’s partner Shaq on the couches where she admits that “it would be nice to explore” something new with him.
She says, “I’ll be honest with you, Tom is obviously ticking almost all the boxes for me, but it’s still early days, I haven’t even talked to you properly, it would be nice to explore.”
However, Tanya, who is paired with Shaq, awkwardly interrupts their pleasant conversation as she brings the airport security officer a cup of tea.
Uh-oh! Elsewhere, despite apparently being in a happy couple with Tanya, Shaq tells Zara that he feels the same way and that he would like to meet her.

He tells her, “If you’re really into someone, you owe it to yourself to get to know them, you don’t know what they might be on the outside.”
“On the outside, you’d be someone I would go to, so I want to explore that to see the vibes,” to which she says, “Same with you.”

Problems in the future? Eager to be honest with Tanya, he then sits her down and makes it clear to her that he would like to meet Zara.
Shaq and Zara then bond over how they’re both from London and he comments, “You’re from London too, you just get it.”
With Zara adding: ‘Same with you, we’re from the same area, that’s the thing, that would just work instantly.’
Eager to be honest with Tanya, he then sits her down and makes his intentions clear that he would like to meet Zara.
