Squirrel causes havoc at the Etihad

There was an unexpected intriguer on the pitch at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night. A squirrel gave the Manchester City groundstaff a run for their money before the Carabao Cup clash against Wolves. The animal found its way on to the playing surface before kick-off and, after a brief struggle, was eventually escorted off the pitch. A member of the City groundstaff tries to remove a squirrel from the pitch (Richard Sellers/Empics)(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga'); ga('create', 'UA-72310761-1', 'auto', {'name': 'pacontentapi'}); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'referrer', location.origin); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'dimension1', 'By PA Sport Staff'); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'dimension2', '3f82dfd3-26c9-4376-96bc-c8d864322bf3'); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'dimension3', 'paservice:sport,paservice:sport:football'); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'dimension6', 'story-enriched'); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'dimension7', 'composite'); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'dimension8', null); ga('pacontentapi.set', 'dimension9', 'sport:football'); ga('pacontentapi.send', 'pageview', { 'location': location.href, 'page': (location.pathname + location.search + location.hash), 'title': 'Squirrel causes havoc at the Etihad'});
