US soccer pitch partly collapses into huge sinkhole

A vast sinkhole has appeared in the middle of an Illinois soccer pitch that was laid above a limestone mine, just days after amateur teams stopped using the ground for practice.

The collapse happened at Gordon Moore Park in Alton, Illinois, about 18 miles north of St Louis, Missouri, on Wednesday.

The sinkhole was 30 metres wide and 9 metres deep.

No injuries have been reported but all sports at the park have been cancelled
