Pitch invaders and the weather are common causes of play being held up, but in the Welsh League on Saturday, it was an earthquake.
Experts have said the quake -- which shook parts of the UK on Saturday -- was the biggest in a decade.
43' - temporary stop in play. A recorded earthquake in the area. Incredible.
