One dog expressed his unconditional love for belly rubs during an international match between Chile and Venezuela’s women’s teams at Estadio La Granja stadium in Curicó last Saturday, June 25th.

In a hilariously cute and hectic moment, a big black Labrador found its way into the stadium and trotted onto the soccer pitch during the game’s 36th minute, going straight for Chile’s goalkeeper Christine Endler.

During the 36th minute of the game, the black Labrador went straight for Chile’s goalkeeper Christine Endler and flopped in front of her for pets

It flopped right in front of her and demanded attention. She could do little but obey and proceeded to pet the pupper while its legs dangled in content. Once he was satisfied, he got up and ran to the referee, plopping down and rolling over once more, excited to receive all the love.

A small group of players attempted to lure the pup away from the field, however, he had them bamboozled when he ran in the other direction. The crowd kept cheering on the pup as it dashed around the soccer field at incredible speeds, clearly rejoicing in the spotlight and all its new friends. He then sprinted to the technical area where he received more pets and snuggles.

Players attempted to capture the animal numerous times, but the pup kept slipping away. That is until two Chilean players came together and were able to carry the dog off the pitch. Though, it seemed the Labrador didn’t mind much, as he was wagging his tail throughout.

The match finished 1-0 in favor of Venezuela, with Mariana Speckmaier scoring in the 82nd minute. But we’re sure the Labrador made them all feel like victors. According to GiveMeSport, both Chile and Venezuela are preparing for the Copa América Femenina, which gets underway in Colombia on July 8th.

The adorable video has since gone viral on social media, with one video reaching over 8.3M views on Twitter alone. One person commented, saying, “I vote this type of streaker should be allowed at least once a game – it’s a belly rub timeout!” Another said, “The only time an interruption in a football game is good!”
