There has maybe been a precedent in the history of football. The teams of Botev Plovdiv (Bulgaria) and AEL Limassol (Cyprus) met in a friendly game in Sofia, which finished with a 1-3 victory for the team from Cyprus, but the result and the match itself wasn’t that interesting.

The most entertaining moment from the game was in the 29th minute, when a bull went on the pitch in front of the unbelieving eyes of the fans! The animal crossed the whole pitch slowly, demonstrating its disinterest to the match. The fans of Botev Plovdiv started to chant: “Cattle, cattle…”. That’s because this is an offence towards one of their rivals in Bulgaria – Levski Sofia.

It took the officials a couple of minutes to take it off from the field and the teams could continue with the training match. Fortunately, none of the players or the officials was wearing red kits! The situation came true, because the cowman maybe wanted to watch the match and came too close to the pitch with his animals.

However, that wasn’t everything! Several minutes later, the dog of the herd also decided to go on the pitch, but it was quite easier for the officials to move the dog out of the pitch.

We have seen a lot of animals, which have interrupted matches in different football leagues. I, personally, have seen ducks, dogs, cats, weasels, different birds and many other, but I can say that’s a real precedent in the history of professional football, as both teams are to take part in the Europa League next campaign. Imagine how the players felt when they saw the big mammal…

In conclusion, football is not only interesting for the fans of the game – it’s also entertaining for the animals, as this bull is the proof for that.
