Cameraman Focuses On Cockroach In Tokyo Olympics Live Broadcast Instead Of Hockey Match(VIDEO)

July 29, 2021 by World News

TOKYO |

A cameraman decided to focus on a cockroach during the live broadcast of women’s hockey event between Spain and Agentina, which was aired on Argentinian TV network TyC Sports.

This year’s Olympic Games are giving us a good dose of viral news and videos. The latest one to send us laughing is a clip from the women’s hockey match between Spain and Argentina as aired on an Argentinian TV channel. Argentina stole the match while a cockroach stole our laughs.

Wondering what we mean? Well, just when a replay of a shot was to be played on broadcast, viewers saw a cockroach blissfully waddling on the field. The cameraman must have taken great interest in the creature as he focussed on it for quite a few seconds. But, perhaps to safeguard the cockroach’s privacy, the camera was soon turned back to the match.
