Brazil (Sports Desk): An interesting incident occurred during a football match when a large blue-colored parrot suddenly entered the field and disturbed the players, forcing the match to be stopped for a while.
During the 17th minute of the match between Flamengo and Ceará, the parrot flew into the ground and landed on a Flamengo defender, causing the player to lose balance and fall to the ground.
The unexpected arrival of the parrot surprised the players on the field, after which the referee stopped the game while assessing the situation.
