The hit programme was delayed by an hour on ITV2 due to England's Euro 2024 clash against the Netherlands.
Kick off for the semi final match started at 8pm - and ITV wanted to give the nation the chance to enjoy both.
But reality TV fans who weren't interested in the football got the hump.
One said: "Sorry but why is love island delayed by an hour for the football when itv2 isn’t even showing the football??"
Another hit out: "My changing the channel to ITV2 and being confused like…. they delayed Love Island cuz of the f*****g football. If ppl want to watch the Euros instead of Love Island then let them do that. Keep it on at 9pm for the rest of us."

A third snapped: "Stupid football postponing love island," and a fourth chimed: "I just made food in time and they’ve pushed it back an hour again for bloody football!"
However, football watchers were in for a treat as Ollie Watkins scored a stunning last-minute winner for England.
It was a remarkably dramatic end to a back-and-forth semi-final, after Xavi Simons gave Netherlands the lead with a brilliant strike.
The Sun earlier revealed that "several" stars will be axed on Love Island tonight as bosses stage a clear out of the packed villa.
