Watford's match against Norwich was suspended due to floodlight failure.
The floodlights in each corner of Vicarage Road began to dim and referee Mike Dean it was unsafe to continue - even though visibility was not interrupted.
The delay lasted ten minutes before Dean consulted the two managers and captains and asked if they were happy to continue, which they were.
And Claudio Ranieri may have regretted that decision when moments later Josh Seargent headed in his second goal of the game to give Norwich a valuable 2-0 lead.
Jamie Carragher said on Sky Sports' coverage of the game: "It's absolutely fine. Who decides that they can't carry on in this light? Is it the referee? They can play, just get on with it."
Fellow pundit Gary Neville agreed.
