TV spidercam falls on to pitch during Hungary game

A TV camera suspended by wires fell on to the pitch during Hungary's friendly against Kazakhstan at Nagyerdei Stadium in Debrecen, forcing a brief stoppage in play.

Hungarian media reported the camera began smoking midway through the first half after fire damaged the cable supporting it.

The camera then plunged from a height of more than 20 metres and landed just inside the touchline near Hungary's warm-up area, two metres from a cameraman.

Nobody was injured and players took a drinks break in the 26th minute while the incident was dealt with.

Hungary went on to beat Kazakhstan 3-1, with Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai among the goalscorers.
