Everton took home a 3-2 win, thanks to strikes from Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Iliman Ndiaye as well as an Archie Gray’s own goal, as reported by What’s The Jam.
But one football-goer, named Lois, was more intrigued by something happening on the side of the pitch.
While trying to keep her eyes on the game, she couldn’t help but notice the stewards.
In the clip, they can be seen seemingly relaxing on the grass in a line with their feet pushed up against the stand.
“At my first footy match who are these divas,” Lois said in the caption of the post, which has gained 226,700 likes and 500 comments.

Although some novice football-goers might think this is odd behaviour, it is actually quite commonplace.
Stewards will lie on the grass to not be in the way for people watching.
But others, like Lois, have a different opinion.
