A social network shared a video clip showing a swarm of bees attacking players during a match that was being held at the Dar es Salaam stadium in Dodoma, Tanzania Cup.

The match was suspended in the 55th minute, following a swarm of bees attack, which confused players, fans and referees.

The video showed the players lay down to avoid this attack, and a number of fans did the same to avoid stings.

The "attack" prompted the players and the fans to leave the field quickly, before returning and completing the match normally after the bee swarm subsided.
