SCOTLAND Women's fixture against Slovakia had to be suspended due to a biblical downpour of rain, thunder and lightning.
Pedro Martínez Losa's side were taking on Slovakia in a UEFA Women's Championship Qualification match at the Stadión pod Zoborom in Nitra, Slovakia.
The visitors had taken the lead just after half-time through Claire Emslie.
However, in the 58th minute with the score 1-0, adverse weather forced the game to be stopped.
Referee Merima Čelik ordered the players off the pitch with visibility extremely low as rumbles of thunder and flashes of lighting were also seen.
Both teams stayed inside whilst the officials periodically came to check on the pitch and how the weather was developing.

It appeared as if play would be unable to resume, with the rain so fierce that the ball was unable to bounce on the waterlogged pitch.
Fortunately, after a 40 minute delay, Bosnian whistler Čelik allowed play to resume.
Both teams had a 10-minute warm-up before the game got back underway, though lighting could STILL be seen.
Even the restart was unorthodox, with the ref resuming play with a drop ball inside the box.
