There have been such hilarious instances in the past as well. Once, a beagle was observed disrupting the course of a match during a lower-division game between Halesowen Town and Skelmersdale in England. And again, during a recent match in Argentina, a dog ensured seven minutes of play were destroyed while trying to gain control of the ball from the players.
