A protester spectacularly attached himself to a post using a cable tie during Everton's Premier League clash with Newcastle United.
Everton's Premier League contest against Newcastle United was temporarily halted on Thursday after a protester tied himself to a goalpost.
Wearing a shirt with the slogan "Just Stop Oil" emblazoned on it, the protester cable tied themselves to the post, causing a lengthy delay.
The move failed to garner support from those in attendance, with a steward needing to find pliers in order to detach the cable from the goal frame, before he was eventually carried away by police.
The campaign group Just Stop Oil claimed responsibility for the actions, posting on Twitter: "BREAKING: Just Stop Oil supporter locks on to goalpost during Everton vs Newcastle United game."
