Maybe Estadio Parque ANCAP should invest in some nets around the field.
A soccer match between a pair of Segunda Division Profesional league clubs in Uruguay caused a minor fender bender after a ball was kicked out of play and into a nearby busy street, causing passing motorists to slowdown untill one got hit by another.
Video of the incident has gone viral on social media after it happened during Saturday’s match between Uruguay Montevideo and Paysandu.
Um lance inacreditável marcou Uruguay Montevideo x Paysandú, pela Segunda Divisão do Uruguai, no Parque ANCAP.

The ball was errantly kicked out of play when a Montevideo player rushed in to clear the ball and sent it into nearby Ruta Nacional Dr. Hugo Batalla.
The ball rolled through the busy road as vehicles slowed down to avoid hitting the ball until a white SUV, which had been decreasing its speed, was struck by a black truck.
The clip cuts back to the players on the field.
The wreck caused traffic to halt for 20 minutes, the Daily Mail reported.
Estadio Parque ANCAP is located in the Pueblo Victoria neighborhood of the city of Montevideo and holds a capacity of 1,500 fans. Montevideo is Uruguay’s largest city and the country’s capital.
Uruguay Montevideo came away with the win during Saturday’s match, getting the best of Paysandu 1-0.
