There must be some kind of kooky farm of soccer-match-interrupting animals in Sandy somewhere because it happened again.
Last year, a duck went onto the field at Rio Tinto Stadium and had grounds crew members and even Albert Rusnák chasing after it. On Wednesday, it was a cat.
The cat randomly appeared on the field during a Tigres attacking opportunity and disrupted play. It ran around for close to 30 seconds and eventually found its way through a space in the stands, but not before getting some cheers from the raucous crowd.
After the duck appeared last September, RSL went through a difficult stretch of results — one win, two losses and two draws to be exact.
