A curious moment was experienced on Tuesday in the match between Junior de Barranquilla and Universitario de Deportes, for the second date of Group D of the Copa Libertadores.
At 68 minutes, with the score 1-1, a little black dog entered the field of the Metropolitan Stadium in Barranquilla and was enthusiastic about playing with the ball.

As expected, this situation was greatly celebrated by those attending the match, and even some players from the local club allowed the animal to move freely through a sector of the field that Junior occupied at that time.
The match referee, upon noticing the fact, stopped the match for a moment until the dog was removed from the field of play.
