A dog stole the show and the hearts of thousands of fans on December 24 when it ran onto the field during a professional soccer match in Potosi, Bolivia.
The pooch invaded the field running, jumping and moving his tail while holding a soccer cleat in his mouth during the match between The Strongest and Nacional.
Players and the referee in the First Division game struggled to win back possession from the dog. The incident held up play for around three minutes.
Finally a player for home side National carried the animal off the pitch.
