A drunken Bronx man mowed down nine pedestrians, including a 20-month-old child, as they left a soccer game at the new Meadowlands Stadium late Friday night, authorities said.

Frank Morocho, 21, was driving a silver Acura when he plowed into the crowd of people crossing Route 120 shortly after the Mexico-Ecuador match, according to witnesses.

“It was like a war scene – there were bodies lying all over the road,” said a New Jersey state cop, who was one of the first to arrive at the scene.
