Nov. 9 (UPI) -- An Australian mother captured video of the moment a mob of kangaroos interrupted her son's soccer game.

Alyssa Simpson, 38, said she was attending her 9-year-old son's soccer game Thursday in Woolgoolga, New South Wales, when the eight kangaroos hopped across the field.

The video shows players and referees steering clear of the marsupials as they hop around on the field.

"I told my son: 'That's who you're playing against today,'" Simpson joked.
