With Venezuela holding on for a point at home to Brazil in CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying on Thursday, every trick in the book was deployed to help them over the line.
When the visitors received a corner kick deep into injury-time as they attempted to turn one point into three, the pitchside technology appeared to have a very helpful and timely 'malfunction'.
It was at that point that the sprinkler system on the field sprung into action in a big help to the 10 men of Venezuela, who ultimately saw things out for a 1-1 draw.
Brazil, understandably, were left angered with the situation which stopped them closing the gap on the standing's top two, Argentina and Colombia.
