Kangaroo invades field, decides it wants to play goalkeeper

Although there's a lot of them around, Australians will have you believe that kangaroos aren't actually hopping up and down our city streets.

Then something like this happens: A kangaroo delayed the second half of a match between soccer teams Blue Devils FC and Canberra FC on Sunday, when it hopped onto the field and set itself in front of goal.

While Australia has no shortage of decent goalkeepers, this little fella is also pretty adept at keeping a clean sheet.

After a little while, the kangaroo hopped off the field and toward the carpark. Then it returned, again, to interrupt the second half of play.

Trust us, this sort of thing isn't an everyday occurrence in Australia, folks. And it's better than a pitch invasion of, say, bees.
