The young fan waved the corner flag around.
In a bizarre yet funny incident, a toddler took away the corner flag during an ongoing women's football match in Ireland. The incident only momentarily stopped the game, but it resulted in a hilarious video that went viral online.
The video shows the game between the Cork City Women and Dublin's DLR Waves was in the 44th minute when a curious toddler pulled up a corner flag and started playing with it.
After that, the players came to the corner and requested that he return the flag. After a few minutes, the boy returned the flag, and the match continued.
The official Cork City Women account also tweeted the funny moment and wrote, "Back underway here after a brief stoppage... a toddler had run off with the corner flag."
The All-Island Cup game was ultimately won by Cork City 2-1.
Corner flags, which are crucial for defining boundaries in football, are set in each corner of the field to designate the margins of the playing area.
