Live images of the FIFA U19 World Cup match between Ireland and Zimbabwe shook vigorously for a few seconds as an earthquake off the coast of Port of Spain caused slight tremors across the Queens Park Oval here.
While the players were unaware and continued to work on the field, the commentators felt a shiver as the comment box started shaking.
The earthquake measured 5.2 on the Richter scale.
Commentator Andrew Leonard described the tremors as the comment box started to wiggle.
“We…I think we’re having an earthquake right now. In the box. We’re already having an earthquake. It felt like a train was not just a train passing behind us, but the entire media center in Queens Park Oval shook.”
The tremors were said to last from 15 to 20 seconds.
Irish spinner Matthew Humphreys was tossing the fifth from the sixth ball to Zimbabwean Brian Bennett when the front camera showing the action started shaking.
The play didn’t stop as Bennett played a halfway defensive shot, then hit the next ball to the frontier.
