A Premier League match took an unexpected turn when a black cat sprinted onto the pitch and turned Everton versus Wolverhampton into a very different kind of spectacle. For a few minutes, the game was less about football and more about one determined animal refusing to cooperate with anyone trying to guide it off the grass.

The cat wandered across the field, drew cheers from the crowd, and even managed to interrupt play while commentators tried to make sense of the chaos. Fans online quickly joined in too, turning the moment into a mix of jokes, reactions, and comparisons to a certain animated dragon.

Both football fans and cat fans raced to comment on Twitter

Some noticed that the gorgeous black cat looked a little like Toothless from How To Train Your Dragon

This cat for MVP?
