Traffic Chaos On M60: Bored Commuters Play Motorway Football In Greater Manchester | UK News | Sky News

The match took place on an empty section of the motorway between Prestwich and Whitefield in Greater Manchester.

As bored commuters got out of their cars and vans to stretch their legs, some used jumpers for goalposts on the closed clockwise carriage at junction 17.

Drivers were stuck in queues for more than two hours, but it is not clear if the game went on longer than the usual 90 minutes, or indeed ended in penalties.
