This is only the second worst tackle of Johnson’s sporting career…

Mayor of London Boris Johnson might be shaping up for a lash at being Prime Minister one day, but we think he should give up on a sporting career.

At a charity match today against a bunch of kids, Johnson managed to hack down an unsuspecting nine-year-old as he went for the ball.

Okay, it is not quite in the Keane/Haaland sphere but considering there is a 41-year age diffference between the two, it doesn’t look good.

However, it isn’t even close to the worst tackle that Johnson has committed on a football field. Remember this gem from a Germany/England charity match a few years back?
