An interesting pitch-invader halted play in a recent matchup between Alebrijes de Oaxaca and Dorados in Mexico. A four-legged intruder came on the pitch and attempted to join the second-division players in their match playing football.

A stray dog ventured from the stands and effortlessly swayed the ball away from the goalkeeper. He even feinted and saved himself from being captured a couple of times by the security personnel.
