Mayor Of London Hacks Down Little Boy In Pick-Up Soccer Match

Boris Johnson, Mayor of London and amateur sportsman, was watching some children play soccer today when he was invited to join in on proceedings. Presumably to teach them a lesson in the true, physical nature of English footy, he took out one kid with this terribly timed challenge:

The message seems to have taken, since the boy did not roll around on the field feigning pain and instead shot right back up to continue playing. Looks like that kid won't be the next Ashley Young, but Johnson is still Roy Keane.
