There was a rabbit pitch invader during a Canadian Premier League fall season match at Edmonton on Wednesday.

Valour held their hosts to a 0-0 draw at Clarke Stadium, where a series of delays led to the game not finishing until four and a half hours after the scheduled start time.

Stormy weather severely affected the event and saw kick-off delayed by 45 minutes before a recurrence led to a two hour pause shortly after the national anthem.

Many fans and even the TV crew covering the game upped and left during the huge break in play in Edmonton.

But those that stayed were treated to the appearance of a rabbit on the pitch midway through the second-half.

The small animal bounded around the grass while players swerved to avoid it.
